MAJORITY REPORT. “91 complexity of administrative provisions and obscured by much unwritten history, the work of the Secretary is particularly onerous and calls for the utmost degree of efficiency and accuracy. Mr. Hackforth has brought to our guidance and has held ever ready at our disposal an intimate and highly technical knowledge of the intricacies and the development of Health Insurance law and procedure ; and our task has been materially lightened by the great ability and exactitude with which he has handled, collated and amplified the immense volume of written and printed matter submitted to us. Throughout all our inquiries we have been greatly indebted to Mr. Hackforth and Mr. Peck for their unfail- ing courtesy, their resourcefulness, and their readiness on all occasions to comply with the many demands made upon their time and their knowledge. We also acknowledge our obligations to the members of the staff of the Ministry of Health, the Scottish Board of Health, and the Government Actuary’s Department, who have prepared material for our use. In particular we desire to express our indebtedness to the anonymous and unrecorded authors and com- pilers of the ‘ Summary of the Law and Administration of National Health Insurance *’ which has been printed as Part I of the Appendix to the Minutes of Evidence taken before us— a work which has not only been throughout of incalculable assistance to us, but will also, as we anticipate, afford the greatest enlightenment to all independent inquirers in this comparatively neglected field of social study and research. All which we humbly submit for Your Majesty’s gracious consideration. (Signed) si LAWRENCE OF KINGSGATE (Chairman). JOHN ANDERSON. HuMmPHRY ROLLESTON. ArrreED W. WATSON. ARTHUR WORLEY. ANDREW R.
