§ 50. Sir W. Smithersasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will give an estimate of the approximate extra annual charge to the taxpayer if all the recommendations of the Royal Commission on Population are adopted.
§ Mr. Glenvil HallI assume that the hon. Member has the recommendations in paragraph 492 particularly in mind. The cost of giving effect to all these would be between£65 million and£70 million a year if exclusion of the first child continues and would be rather more than£200 million a year if the first child is included.
