HC Deb 28 February 1957 vol 565 c208W
97. Mr. Hunter

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer the total amount of post-war credits owing at the latest convenient date; and what is the present day purchasing power of £100 of post-war credits owing from 1942, 1943 and 1944, respectively.

Mr. Powell

The total amount of postwar credits outstanding is now about £467 million. The present purchasing power of £100 is equivalent to that of about £55, £57 and £59 in 1942, 1943 and 1944, respectively.
