HC Deb 10 June 1852 vol 122 c416
The CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUER

Sir, I promised that I would make a statement to the House this evening with reference to the Vote for the Kafir war. In consequence of the expense of the Kafir war having been much less consider able than we anticipated, and in consequence of the Treasury Minute that no expenditure should take place for extra ordinary military services until the Votes for ordinary military expenditure had been exhausted, I have the satisfaction to state to the House that I do not feel it necessary to call upon them for that Vote of 200,000l. which I told them at the time of the financial statement I should probably be obliged to apply for.
