§ 59. Mr. Boyd-Carpenterasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what estimate he has made of the cost resulting from the seamen's strike to the balance of payments in the current year and in respect of future years.
§ Mr. CallaghanNo reliable estimate can be made. The cost will depend, among other things, on how long the strike lasts and on the efforts of all concerned to make up lost ground when it is over.
