HC Deb 06 April 1921 vol 140 cc250-1
21. Viscount CURZON

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty by what date will the accounts of the prize fund for the year ending 31st March, 1921, be completed; by what date the various prize court accounts will be cleared up; and when it will be possible to state how much more than the original appropriation in respect of prize money for the Royal Navy will be available for distribution?

Mr. AMERY

It cannot at present be stated at what date the accounts of the Naval Prize Fund for the year ending the 31st ultimo will be ready for presentation to Parliament, or when the various court accounts will be finally cleared. As regards the amount available for the final distribution, it is hoped that the necessary figures will be obtainable by the end of this year.
