HC Deb 14 April 1902 vol 106 c132
MR. MALCOLM

I beg to ask the Financial Secretary to the War Office, whether he can state the numbers of canned provision contracts for the Field Force in South Africa held respectively by Canadian and American firms.

LORD STANLEY

Fifty-one Canadian and a hundred and one American contracts have been made since the beginning of the war.

MR. MALCOLM

When was the last contract made?

LORD STANLEY

I think some are being made at the present moment, but I will inquire.
