HC Deb 10 December 1928 vol 223 c1672
7. Sir WILFRID SUGDEN

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies if he is now in a position to state that the military contribution of the Straits Settlements will be reduced, in view of their contributions to the naval base, and in nearer proportion to that contributed by other similar overseas Dominions or Colonies?

Mr. AMERY

I cannot at present add anything to the reply given on the 26th of November to a question by my Noble Friend the Member for Southampton (Lord Apsley).
