§ In addition to the sum of £195,522,000, expenditure chargeable to the income account of the Exchequer, the State provided out of revenue during the 164 year £9,713,000 for the Local Taxation account, and an expenditure on Capital account of £7,548,000—namely, £1,700,000 on military works, £2,906,000 on naval works, £870,000 for the Uganda Railway, £1,061,000 for the Pacific cable, £881,000 for Post Office telephone services, and £130,000 on public buildings in connection with the Land Registry Office. So that the total expenditure provided by the State in the year was £212,783,000.
§ I must detain the Committee, I hope not at any great length, on the details of the revenue of the year. The Exchequer receipts from the Custom were £30,993,000—£993,000 more than my estimate. The two most interesting items to the Committee undoubtedly will be sugar and coal.
