§ Mr. Elystan Morganasked the Minister of Labour what reports he has received from the Cost-of-Living Advisory Committee on any matter referred to it last year.
§ Mr. GunterYes. The Committee has submitted an interim report recommending that meals bought and consumed outside the home should be included among the price indicators used in the Index of Retail Prices from February, 1968, and that they should be incorporated in the index as a separate group—Group XI. I have accepted these recommendations. I expect to receive a report on the other matters referred to the Committee about the middle of the year.
