§ Mr. Edenasked the Minister of Housing and Local Government and Minister for Welsh Affairs, what is the national average amount paid by the domestic householder in rates per week; and how this compares with the average figure for Bournemouth alone.
§ Sir K. Joseph10s. 7d. and 12s. 2d. respectively. I regret that in reply to a question by the hon. Member for Leek (Mr. Harold Davies) on 7th March I said that the average for the present year was rather less than 10s. a week. The figure I had in mind was in fact the weekly average for 1961–62.
