HC Deb 01 July 1975 vol 894 cc357-8W
Mr. Knox

asked the Secretary of State for Prices and Consumer Protection if she will publish in the Official Report a table

than the previous month's. Expressed at an annual rate the increase would be 70.4 per cent. However, since more than half the rise in the May figure resulted from increases in direct taxation introduced in the Budget, which will not recur in future months, the figure has no statistical relevance.
