Post-war Credits

HC Deb 30 November 1948 vol 458 c1812

49. Lieut.-Colonel Lipton

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he will introduce legislation authorising payment of post-war credits to the next-of-kin of deceased creditors.

Sir S. Cripps

I cannot anticipate my Budget statement.

Lieut.-Colonel Lipton

Does my right hon. and learned Friend agree that no serious administrative difficulty stands in the way of such a concession if he decided to make it?

Sir S. Cripps

I cannot even anticipate that part of the Budget statement.
