Mrs. Ewing

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will provide estimates of Scottish personal incomes as a proportion of the United Kingdom total, on the same basis as the 7.7 per cent. estimate for 1967–68 contained in the Scottish Budget, for 1951–52 and each succeeding year up to 1969–70.

Mr. Taverne

The proportion for 196768 is now estimated to be 7.9 per cent. based upon later information. The figures for such earlier years as are available are:

1954–55 7.6
1959–60 8.2
1964–65 7.9
1965–66 7.8
1966–67 7.7
