Mr. T. MORRISasked the Minister of Health whether he has, since the introduction of the National Health Insurance and Contributory Pensions Bill, received any representations on its proposals from the approved societies; and, if so, whether he can state their nature?
§ Sir K. WOODI have received from many approved societies of various types an expression of their views with regard to the National Health Insurance and Contributory Pensions Bill. In some cases there has been criticism of some of the provisions of the Bill, but I am glad 1531W to say that the general reception of the Bill by approved societies has been most favourable.
