HC Deb 22 February 1927 vol 202 c1551
17. Sir FREDRIC WISE

asked the Secretary of State for War what the cost of the Army of Occupation was in 1926 and 1925, respectively?

Captain KING

I can only repeat the information given to my hon. Friend on 21st July last, namely, that the estimated cost for 1925 was £2,089,000 and that for 1926, £1,854,700; and add that the actual expenditure in 1925 will be lower than the estimate, owing mainly to a considerable credit for returned stores.
