HL Deb 13 November 1980 vol 414 c1554WA
Lord VAIZEY

asked Her Majesty's Government:

What is the estimated price-elasticity of (a) doubling the entrance fee to Kew Gardens and (b) trebling it.

Earl FERRERS

There is no reliable way of estimating in advance what would happen to the number of visitors to Kew if the admission charge was to be doubled or trebled.
