§ COLONEL BROOKFIELD (Sussex, Rye)asked the Secretary of State for War, Whether, in accepting tenders for the supply of forage to the mounted branches of Her Majesty's Army at Home, any preference whatever was given to British contractors?
§ THE SURVEYOR GENERAL OF ORDNANCE (Mr. WOODALL) (Hanley)(who replied) said: Forage for the troops at home is secured by public tender. There has not been any instance in recent years of a contract for such forage being held by a foreigner.
