HC Deb 14 February 1968 vol 758 cc363-4W
Mr. Arthur Lewis

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether he is aware that in adidtion to increasing the price of the Daily Mirror by 25 per cent., the International Publishing Corporation have increased the prices of their publications Woman's Own and Woman from 8d. to 10d.; and whether, when he discussed the price increases in the Daily Mirror, he also dealt with these increases.

Mr. Darling:

Yes; the new prices of Woman's Own and Woman came into effect with the issue of 10th February. The discussions with International Publishing Corporation on the Daily Mirror arose out of the National Board for Prices and Incomes' report on national daily newspapers and therefore did not cover the prices of these periodicals.
