§ Mr. Russellasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what would be the administrative cost of making arrangements for tobacco vouchers in respect of old age pensioners to be cashable at post offices.
§ Mr. Jay:To devise and estimate the cost of a scheme which would be mutually satisfactory to the Customs and Excise, the Post Office and tobacconists, would require the expenditure of an amount of time and manpower which, since the present arrangements generally have not given rise to difficulties, I do not consider would be justified.
