HC Deb 26 January 1967 vol 739 c337W
Mr. Stratton Mills

asked the Postmaster-General what percentage of the funds of the Post Office Savings Bank's ordinary and special departments is invested in Northern Ireland.

Mr. Edward Short

It is difficult to isolate the figures required since many Government Loans in which the deposits are invested cover the United Kingdom as a whole. However, holdings of exclusively Northern Ireland securities, when current purchases are completed, will represent by nominal value about .3 per cent. and 1.25 per cent. respectively of the assets of the ordinary and investment account funds.
