HC Deb 09 June 1942 vol 380 c936W
Mr. Mainwaring

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether he will indicate the average movement of prices, separately, within each classified group of commodities as utilised for the purpose of obtaining the general average for the country?

Mr. Dalton

The average movement of each group of commodities included in the Board of Trade wholesale prices index number is published each month in the "Board of Trade Journal" which also contains once a year a special review of price movements in the preceding twelve months.
