§
Motion made, and Question proposed,
That a sum, not exceeding £1,700,000, be granted to His Majesty, to defray the Expense of the Works, Buildings, Repairs, and Lands of the Air Force, including Civilian Staff and other Charges connected therewith, which will come in course of payment during the year ending on the 31st day of March, 1930.
§ Mr. KELLYWith regard to the item of lights, do I understand that part of the cost of the beacon light at Orford-ness is to be taken out of the general lighthouse fund which is under the control of Trinity House?
§ Sir S. HOAREI think that that item comes under the Vote "Technical Equipment and War Stores." The cost is defrayed by the Board of Trade and the Air Ministry combined. The Air Ministry makes a contribution towards it, as both the Departments are equally concerned?
§ Sir S. HOAREI do not think there is any difference of opinion between the Board of Trade and the Air Ministry and Trinity House. As far as I know Trinity House have already given their approval.
