HC Deb 23 February 1927 vol 202 c1758
48. Sir F. WISE

asked the Prime Minister the approximate amount spent per head of the population on defence in Britain, Australia, Canada, New Zealand and South Africa in the year ending December, 1926?

The FINANCIAL SECRETARY to the TREASURY (Mr. Ronald McNeill)

I would refer my hon. Friend to the reply given yesterday to a question by the hon. Member for Bristol East. The year 1924–25, to which that reply relates, is the latest year for which figures of actual expenditure are available.
