National Insurance— Employers' Liability at Common Law remains WHEN the new National Insurance Schemes are introduced on July 5th, the Workmen's Compensation Acts will be repealed. Compensation for acci- dents of employment will then be paid by the State. But the employer will still be liable for claims made by workmen at Common Law. In fact, an increasing number of these claims have been made of recent years, and the cost to employers has been generally greater than under the Com- pensation Acts.
