HC Deb 11 March 1968 vol 760 c217W
Mr. Younger

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland what was the average percentage change in rates, domestic and other subjects, respectively, in Scotland from 1966–67 to 1967–68.

Mr. Ross

I estimate that, after allowing for the domestic element of rate support grant, domestic ratepayers will pay on average about 0.4 per cent. less in rates this year, and other ratepayers 3.7 per cent. more.
