§ Mr. BENNETTasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether any later investigations have caused him to vary his estimate of the loss of three-quarters of a million sterling to the State as the result of the recent general strike?
Mr. McNElLLLater information, as my right hon. Friend anticipated, points to.a figure for the net expenditure by the State due to the general strike somewhat less than the estimate of £750,000 which he gave on 17th May. I think the actual figure will be about £600,000.
