HC Deb 17 June 1935 vol 303 c24
49. Mr. H. WILLIAMS

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he can furnish an approximate estimate of the amount of the Supplementary Estimates for Defence which at the present time is thought to be necessary?

Mr. COOPER

I assume that my hon. Friend refers to the measures for the expansion in the Royal Air Force announced on the 22nd May. I am unable at present to state the additional expenditure which will be incurred, but a Supplementary Air Estimate will be presented in July.
