HC Deb 11 February 1971 vol 811 c233W
55. Mr. Kaufman

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what estimate she has made of the likely percentage reduction in demand for school dinners in Manchester where the price is increased to 2s. 5d. in April, 1971; and what this estimated reduction will be in absolute figures.

Mrs. Thatcher

I have made no such estimates for particular local education authority areas. I understand that Manchester L.E.A. has not yet finalised its own estimate.
