HC Deb 25 July 1957 vol 574 c74W
Sir F. Medlicott

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what is now the total amount outstanding in respect of post-war credits; and by what year he anticipates the last of such credits will have been paid.

Mr. Powell

The amount of post-war credits now outstanding is estimated at £461 million. The rate of repayment, under the present statutory conditions, is just over £17 million a year. I cannot anticipate what conditions will apply in future years.
