HC Deb 19 January 1990 vol 165 c436W
Mr. Meacher

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer what has been the level of bank lending to each main sector of United Kingdom residents each year since 1979 at constant 1989 prices; and what was the percentage change each year in each case.

Mr. Ryder

[holding answer 18 January 1990]: Details on the level of lending to the main United Kingdom sectors is published for recent years in "Financial Statistics" (table 6.2) and for earlier years on the CSO databank. An assessment at constant prices can be made using the implied gross domestic product price deflators published in "Economic Trends" (table 2) and in the CSO databank. These publications are available in the Library.
