HC Deb 18 February 1920 vol 125 c876
29. Lieut.-Commander KENWORTHY

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty what was the expenditure of coal and oil fuel, respectively, by His Majesty's Navy during the last six months of the year 1919; and what amount of coal and oil fuel is expected to be expended by His Majesty's Navy during the present year?

Mr. LONG

I am informed that it has not hitherto been considered advisable to publish figures relating to the Navy expenditure of coal and oil fuel, and I do not think it is desirable to depart from this practice.
