HC Deb 10 March 1841 vol 57 c103

On the motion that the report of the committee of Supply be brought up,

Captain Boldero

said, that, during the last eighteen months, a large sum,500,000l. (as we understood) was voted by the House to supply arms and ammunition for maintaining the integrity and independence of the Ottoman empire. 500,000l. had on a former occasion been voted also by that House to supply military stores for the service of the Queen of Spain, who was now their debtor to that amount. He wished then to know whether the stores sent to the Grand Seignior were voted on the same terms as those which were sent out to Spain. That was a question which he would put to-morrow evening, when he expected to receive a satisfactory answer.

Report agreed to.
