HC Deb 29 May 1968 vol 765 cc218-9W
58. Mr. Roebuck

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he is aware that the price of the latest two volumes of the works of Bagehot published by The Economist Limited cost £7 compared with £5 for the previous two volumes; and whether he will refer the matter to the National Board for Prices and Incomes.

Mr. Crosland

The price of the Collected Works of the late Mr. Walter Bagehot is hardly of economic significance even though edited by the hon. Member for Chelmsford (Mr. St. John-Stevas) and published by theEconomist.
