§ 63. Mr. A. Edwardsasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he is aware that the recent petrol price increase will have to be borne almost entirely by the Government; and what steps he is taking to implement the declared policy of the Government to stabilise prices?
§ Sir K. WoodI am advised that the assumption in the first part of the hon. Member's Question is incorrect. As regards the second part, I would refer him to the answer which I gave to him last Tuesday.
§ Mr. EdwardsIs it not a fact that more petrol is being used for business purposes?
