HC Deb 27 February 1922 vol 151 cc72-3W
Captain TERRELL

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he will consider the advisability of issuing with any Supplementary Estimates a brief detailed statement of the causes which require such extra expenditure, instead of, as at present, only indicating the purpose for which the money is provided?

Mr. YOUNG

I think such" statements in explanation of Supplementary Estimates are more suitably made by Ministers in Committee of Supply.
