SOCIAL SECURITY
INSTRUCTIONS TO PUBLIC By Telegraph —Press Association WELLINGTON, March 24 The Minister’ of Social Security, the Hon. W. Nash, states that the pamphlets explaining the obligations of members of the public under the Social Security Act being issued to householders through the post office are dealing principally with the ob’igations of all persons over 16, and further pamphlets dealing particularly with the duties, of businessmen and farmers will be issued' later. The pamphlets to householders deal with problems likely to be met by members of the public generally, and set out in some detail, duties in respect of registration, coupon books, deductions, social security charge exemptions, and other matters of a like nature. While it will be seen that the procedure is closely akin to that followed under the Employment Promotion Act certain important changes have been made. For example the 17- in the £1 is on- the wages of all domestic servants, whether employment is casual or permanent. It is the duty of every person to make himself familiar with the obligations.
