§ 55. Mr. DAYasked the First Commissioner of Works the approximate amount which has been spent on official dinners offered to distinguished visitors at the public expense for the years 1928, 1929, and 1930?
§ Mr. LANSBURYOn the last occasion when I was asked a question concerning Government hospitality, I referred the hon. Member to the answer given by a distinguished predecessor of mine to similar questions on more than one occasion, and I do not feel that there is any reason to depart from the excellent principle which was upheld on that occasion. The figures for money expended on Government hospitality may be obtained from the Civil Appropriation Accounts.
§ Mr. LANSBURYI am not sure. The hon. Member can look it up, and he will see.
