HC Deb 17 November 1949 vol 469 c221W
68. Mr. Osborne

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer, in view of the fact that holders of National Savings Certificates have lost nearly 4s. in the pound sterling in real purchasing power since 1945, if he will now consider guaranteeing the small saver further loss of capital by fixing repayment to the cost-of-living index as is done with certain classes of wages.

Mr. Glenvil Hall

No.
