Mr. Edward M. Taylorasked the Secretary of State for Employment and Productivity what esimate she has made of the extent to which the cost of living 10W is higher or lower in Scotland compared with the cost of living in England and Wales.
§ Mr. Harold WalkerI have made no estimate of the extent to which the cost of living is higher or lower in Scotland compared with the cost of living in England and Wales, but I am considering the report of the Cost of Living Advisory Committee which was asked to consider,inter alia, the desirability of publishing retail prices indices by regions.
