HC Deb 24 July 1987 vol 120 c557W
Mr. Nicholas Bennett

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what is the real interest rate, based on interest rates minus inflation, in each Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development country at the latest available date.

Mr. Lilley

There is no unique measure of "real" interest rates. The monthly publication OECD main economic indicators gives certain short and long-term interest rates and various price indices for the OECD countries.
