HC Deb 17 October 1973 vol 861 c198W
Mr. Greville Janner

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food by what percentage the buying power of the £ sterling has diminished in the last 12 months in relation to the purchase of food.

Mrs. Fenner

It is not meaningful to calculate the fall in the buying power of the £ in terms of any one element in consumer expenditure.
