§ Lieut.-Colonel NALLasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what is the number of Government surplus motor lorries disposed of by the Disposal Board since 6th April, 1922, and the average price per vehicle obtained for them; and whether he can state the number of motor lorries now held by the Disposal Board for disposal?
§ Mr. BALDWIN:Since the, 6th April, 1922, the Disposal Board have sold at home a total of 605 motor lorries, and a further 337 lorries are at present available at home for disposal. I regret that the corresponding figures in respect of surplus lorries sold in Commands, etc., abroad are not available. It is not considered desirable in the public interest to furnish information as to prices realised.
