§ I am therefore determined that a sustained effort shall be made in the coming year to sell Government securities to the non-bank domestic public. To do this, it will be essential that the terms on which Government securities are made available remain fully competitive. I therefore have a number of immediate proposals which I do not doubt will increase the attraction of gilt-edged stock, national savings and other Government securities for investors. There are in particular three sectors of the public which will be in funds this year and to which Government obligations must be available on the right terms.
