HC Deb 22 March 1973 vol 853 c154W
25. Mr. David Clark

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will seek to discuss at a meeting of the EEC Council of Ministers the varying rates of interest charged in member countries for house mortgages, in view of their relevance to movements of capital.

Mr. Patrick Jenkin

Mortgage interest rates are not directly relevant to international capital movements, but I will bear the hon. Member's suggestion in mind.
