HC Deb 11 July 1932 vol 268 c889
46. Mr. MANDER

asked the Prime Minister the approximate annual financial saving to this country if the new disarmament proposals of the Government were adopted unchanged?

Mr. BALDWIN

It is not possible on the information available to make any reliable estimate of the savings immediate and prospective that would be realised if the proposals of His Majesty's Government were adopted; but my hon. Friend can be assured that the ultimate savings would be very substantial.
