HC Deb 12 May 1964 vol 695 c32W
Mr. Stainton

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what progress has been made in considering the decimalisation of British currency, in view of the ever-increasing cost which delay imposes; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Maudling

The cost and benefits of decimalisation must be weighed against those of the many other projects which we have for modernising Britain.
