HC Deb 17 May 1961 vol 640 c149W
Mr. Loveys

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will state the average time that is taken to pay post-war credits in cases where applications are accepted by the Treasury.

Sir E. Boyle

Post-war credit claims are made to, and paid by, inspectors of taxes. Straightforward claims are often paid within a week of receipt, but sometimes inquiries are necessary which occupy some time.
