| The first head then, is the Navy, exclusive of Sea Service | £ | 15,281,000 |
| Army | 18,500,000 | |
| Here, though I am not able to state the amount of the sums that will be required on this head, owing to the arrangements not being yet completed; I am happy to think, that there is every reason to believe, that if approved by the house they will not exceed the sum I have stated, or the amount of the Estimates on the scale voted for a limited period; or if they should, a saving may be expected on some other head. | ||
| Ordnance—England, including Sea Service | £3,911,000 | |
| Ireland | 807,000 | 4,718,000 |
| Miscellaneous—England | 1,500,000 | |
| Ireland | 670,000 | 2,170,000 |
| On this head of expence, however, which must appear considerable, it is right to state, that there are included several important grants in contemplation—such as the provision for the family of lord Nelson, and for the remuneration of our Seamen; objects, which I am sure will be a sufficient justification of the expence they may occasion. |
| Arrears of subsidies | 1,000,000 | |
| Vote of Credit—England | 1,400,000 | |
| Ireland | 600,000 | 2,000,000 |
| Making the joint supply | 43,669,000 | |
| Add, however, separate charges of England. | ||
| To the East-India Company | 1,000,000 | |
| This claim is of several yrs. Standing. A Commission had been appointed to investigate the demand of the company, in 1803; a million was voted, and also last year, and in Autumn, it was understood by the Company, that another million would this year be proposed to be voted. | ||
| There is also a deficiency of Malt, 1804 | 340,000 | |
| Ditto, Ways and Means of 1805 | 1,707,000 | |
| Interest on Exchequer Bills | 1,000,000 | |
| It may be proper to say a few words in explanation of that article. It arises from the method pursued of issuing. Exchequer Bills bearing a certain interest. It has not hitherto been usual to provide the interest at the time the bills are voted, but it comes into the supply of the following year. It has been thought advisable, however, to bring that expence within the year, and provided for it accordingly. | ||
| There is called for, also, a sum of 700,000l. to pay off 5 per Cents. of 1797, and in October next, 500,000l. more will be wanted | 1,200,000 | 5,247,000 |
