§ 65. Mr. Hunterasked the Minister of Labour to give an approximate estimate of the increase in the number of points in the cost-of-living index caused by the increase in the price of petrol.
§ Mr. Iain MacleodI am unable to make an estimate in respect of petrol alone. As regards the estimated effect of the increase in the prices of petrol and other oils, I would refer the hon. Member to the estimate given by my right hon. Friend the Chancellor of the Exchequer on 10th December.
