HC Deb 09 June 1920 vol 130 c410
95. Mr. CHARLES BARRIE

asked the Financial Secretary to the War Office if he will state what are now the functions of the Hay and Straw Department of the War Office, how many buildings this Department occupies, the number of employés, and the annual cost?

Sir A. WILLIAMSON

The Forage Department of the War Office is being wound up and will cease to exist at the end of the present month. The Department occupies one office only with a small staff, which is daily diminishing.
