HC Deb 06 April 1965 vol 710 cc46-7W
Mr. Duffy

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what was the value of personal savings for the last quarter of 1964, expressed as a percentage of personal disposable income; and how this figure compares with that for the corresponding period of 1963.

Mr. MacDermot

On the basis of seasonally-adjusted figures, personal savings are estimated to have been 8.4 per cent. of personal disposable income in the last quarter of 1964, compared with 8.3 per cent. in the corresponding period of 1963.
