HC Deb 18 December 1968 vol 775 c412W
Mrs. Ewing

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he is satisfied that the Government Social Survey Department has the capabilities to undertake a sample survey of Anglo-Scottish trade patterns; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Taverne:

The Department conducts research into the circumstances of individuals and households and would not appear to be a suitable instrument for a survey of the kind that the hon. Lady may have in mind.
