HC Deb 18 July 1997 vol 298 c379W
Mr. Heathcoat-Amory

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer what estimate he has made of the number of people receiving tax relief for private medical insurance who will terminate their current policies as a result of the Budget measures to terminate such tax relief. [8701]

Dawn Primarolo

[holding answer 15 July 1997]: There is no reason for anyone to terminate a policy which was current at the time of the Budget, because tax relief continues to be given on eligible policies until they fall due for renewal.
