HC Deb 29 May 1970 vol 801 c618W
Mr. David Howell

asked the Minister of Posts and Telecommunications if he will give figures for the additional revenue raised by the Post Office in a full year as a result of the price increases imposed in 1968 and 1970.

Mr. Stonehouse:

Estimates of the yield from the 1968 price changes are given in Post Office Report and Accounts, 1968–69, Appendix 4. The 1970 Telecommunications tariff increases are expected to yield about £65 million in a full year.
