National Health Service Executive Councils
Insurance Committees were set up under the National Insurance Act 1911 to administer health insurance. In 1948 they were replaced by NHS Executive Councils, which administered insurance and GP services. The Executive Councils were abolished in 1974. Executive Council records are public records under the Public Records Act 1958.
