§ Captain TERRELLasked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury whether the use by Members of this House of the travelling vouchers provided for them during the first fortnight of their issue has exceeded or has not reached the official weekly estimate taken into consideration in assessing the annual value of such vouchers at £70,000?
Mr. GRAHAMI regret that the information asked for is not available. The Accounting Officer is, of course, aware how many books of vouchers he has issued; but I understand that up to yesterday, he had received only one claim for payment from the railways.
