HC Deb 08 August 1916 vol 85 c843
18. Mr. LUNDON

asked the Secretary of State for War what prices have been paid for horses in Canada and the United States by their buyers; what does the total price of each horse come to on an average when landed in this country; what was the average price per troop horse of those bought in Ireland; and why has the purchase of such horses in Ireland been almost abandoned?

Mr. FORSTER

I would refer my hon. Friend to the reply which I gave to the hon. Member for Canterbury on 31st July.
