HC Deb 07 April 1903 vol 120 cc1242-3
MR. WEIR (Ross and Cromarty)

To ask the Lord Advocate whether the Secretary for Scotland is aware that the sum of £550, derived from the sale of the Fishery Board cruiser "Garland," has not been brought to account as an Appropriation in Aid in the Fishery Board Estimates; and will he state in what way it is proposed to account for the money.

(Answered by Mr. A. Graham Murray.) Under Treasury instructions, the net proceeds of the sale of the "Garland" were paid into Exchequer and will be shown as Exchequer extra receipts in the Appropriation Account for the financial year 1902–3.
