HC Deb 19 February 1946 vol 419 c960
56. Mr. Janner

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether, when drawing up his Budget proposals, he will give consideration to the possibility of making some arrangements for a payment of postwar credits, at an early date, to people now over 70 years of age; and if he will give an estimate of what would be the sum of money involved.

The Chancellor of the Exchequer (Mr. Dalton)

I must ask my hon. Friend to await my Budget Statement. The sum involved would be about£20 million.
