HC Deb 07 February 1939 vol 343 cc768-9W
Mr. R. Morgan

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether his attention has been called to the very low rates of surrender values granted by some assurance companies to policy holders who cannot afford to continue; and whether he will institute an inquiry into the methods of computation and distribution of such surrender values with the object of ensuring the fairest possible treatment of those concerned?

Mr. Stanley

If my hon. Friend will be good enough to give me particulars of the class of assurance policies he has in mind, I will communicate with him on the subject.
