§ Mr. Lathanasked the Minister of Health whether he is satisfied that the statutory amount allowed to approved societies for appropriation for the efficient administration of the National Insurance Acts is sufficient to enable them to pay their staffs salaries commensurate with the qualifications and special knowledge they must possess to administer these Acts with their intricacies and difficulties of interpretation?
§ Sir K. WoodI have no reason to suppose that the statutory amount referred to is not sufficient and approved societies are generally carrying out their duties in a satisfactory manner within that amount.
