HC Deb 24 February 1926 vol 192 cc503-4
25. Mr. HARMSWORTH

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty whether any substantial expenditure falls upon the taxpayers in respect of the newly-formed Royal Naval Benevolent Trust?

Mr. DAVIDSON

No, Sir; but I may point out that the Royal Naval Benevolent Trust is only one of many items which have been added to the administrative work of the Admiralty in recent years.

Mr. HARMSWORTH

Might I ask, in that case, whether there are no costs of administration?

Mr. DAVIDSON

My information is that there are practically none.
