HC Deb 09 April 1951 vol 486 cc50-1W
Sir W. Smithers

asked the Minister of National Insurance if a doctor who works for the National Health Service is, under her regulations, for the purposes of National Insurance contributions, classed as self-employed or employed by the State.

Mr. B. Taylor

The conditions under which doctors work for the National Health Service vary but a general practitioner on the list of an executive council will normally be regarded as self-employed for the purposes of the National Insurance Act.
