HC Deb 05 August 1878 vol 242 c1177
MR. HAYTER

asked the Secretary of State for War, What is the total amount included in the Supplementary Army Estimate in respect of the occupation of Cyprus by Her Majesty's Forces; and, whether he can state how such total amount is distributed for stores, works, and fortifications?

COLONEL STANLEY

Sir, the last part of my hon. Friend's Question has not reached me, and I am not, therefore, in a position to answer it. What we have taken is £10,000 for staff, £25,000 for works, and £45,000 for stores; but it is quite obvious that these amounts can only be approximate. These are the stores and works within the General Vote, and what the repayments may be I cannot say.
