Mr. Hale

asked the Economic Secretary to the Treasury whether he is aware that in the case of re Longbourne's Marriage Settlement 1952, reported in All-England Law Reports, at page 933, the duty was laid on trustees to assess the value of annuities on actuarial principles based on the cost of National Debt Annuities according to the ruling price of 2½ per cent. Consols; when the appropriate tables were last published; and where they can be obtained.

Mr. du Cann
