HC Deb 31 January 1967 vol 740 cc44-5W
72. Mr. Wolrige-Gordon

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what his policy will be regarding the decimalisation of prices in the shops, when the change could result in either the raising or the lowering of the cost to the consumer.

Mr. Callaghan

An early task of the Decimal Currency Board will be to advise on suitable conversion tables to determine the decimal equivalents of amounts in £ s. d. as a guide for the repricing of commodities and services.
