HC Deb 08 December 1972 vol 847 c544W
Mr. Sheldon

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what are the Gini coefficients of concentration of wealth for each year starting with the first year for which it is practicable to produce a Gini coefficient.

Mr. Nott

The latest available figures, which cover the years from 1961, are published in Table 86 of Inland Revenue Statistics, 1972. The paragraph on "concentration of wealth" on pages 156–157 explains the nature of the statistics and gives figures for 1960, the earliest year for which figures can be produced.
