HC Deb 21 January 1969 vol 776 cc62-3W
Mr. Alison

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what percentage rate of increase in the supply of money during 1969 falls within the criterion of the Government's current economic policy.

Mr. Harold Lever

The significance of changes in the money supply depends to a considerable extent on the reasons for the changes. This makes it impossible to set a precise target of the kind suggested.
