MAJORITY REPORT. 
(h) In the case of unmarried insured women, no allow- 
ances should be paid in respect of dependent children, but 
additions at the rates of 2s. to sickmess benefit and ls. to 
disablement benefit should be paid in respect of a widowed 
mother living with the insured person and not having sons 
to whom she can look for support. (paras. 314-326.) 
(52) That no change should at present be made in the existing 
provision for maternity under the Insurance Scheme. (para. 
347) 
(53) That while a complete dental service available to the 
whole insured population would be an eminently desirable 
addition to the Insurance Scheme, no such change is financially 
practicable at present, and that therefore the general arrange- 
ments for dental services under additional benefit schemes be 
continued. (paras 348, 361.) 
(54) That in order to secure more uniformity in, and 
effective supervision of, these services a Regional Dental Staff be 
instituted in such a form that it may be appropriately expanded 
when a statutory dental benefit is feasible ; and that a substantial 
proportion of the cost of the Regional Dental Staff be borne by 
the Approved Societies providing dental benefit. (paras. 362-365.) 
(55) That owing to considerations arising from a survey of 
the development of the various medical services provided or 
supervised by the State and having regard to the very large cost 
involved, no extension in the direction of provision of medical 
benefit for the dependants of insured persons be made. (para. 
373.) 
INSURANCE COMMITTEES. 
(66) That Insurance Committees be abolished and their powers 
and duties transferred to committees of the appropriate Tiocal 
Authorities, such committees to contain possibly a proportion of 
co-opted members. (para. 396.) 
REMUNERATION AND CONTROL OF INSURANCE PRACTITIONERS. 
(57) That the capitation method of remuneration of the 
insurance practitioners be continued as the normal method but 
that the attendance method be retained as an alternative for 
adoption in particular areas when so desired. (para. 431.) 
(58) That it is desirable that any settlement of the rate of 
remuneration of the insurance practitioners should be made valid 
over a reasonable period of years so as to avoid financial uncer- 
taintv to both the contracting parties. (para. 428.) 
(59) That the existing machinery for regulating admission 
to and removal from the medical panel, and for dealing with com- 
plaints as to the conduct of practitioners, chemists and patients
