§ I come now to the non-tax revenue. The Post Office I estimate at £23,800,000.
§ Mr. AUSTEN CHAMBERLAINDoes that include the Telegraphs and Telephones as well as the Post Office?
§ Mr. LLOYD GEORGEYes, it includes all three services, and the total is £23,800,000. The increase we anticipate is very largely due to the excellent trade prospects of the year. The receipts from the Crown lands we put at £480,000 and from the Suez Canal shares and other items at £1,160,000. That is down by £109,000, but the diminution is not attributable to the Suez Canal at all; it represents, in fact, a sum of £100,000 received from the Gold Coast last year on account of an Exchequer Loan, and which, of course, is an item that will not appear in the revenue for this year. "Miscellaneous" stands at £1,850,000, an increase of £162,000, giving a total non-tax revenue of £27,290,000.
