§ 31. Mr. Tebbitasked the Lord President of the Council if he will raise in the Services Committee the matter of giving indemnity to Members whose personal insurance policies may be invalidated in the course of their duties, as when flying in Royal Air Force aircraft during visits to Service establishments.
§ Mr. PriorNo, Sir. Members who are travelling in Service aircraft whilst on the business of the House are covered by the House of Commons Insurance Scheme, a copy of which I am sending to my hon. Friend. The provision of insurance cover to Members engaged on other business must remain a matter for the individual Member concerned.
