HC Deb 18 May 1953 vol 515 c112W
Mr. Emrys Hughes

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland what expenditure he is incurring in connection with the Coronation.

Mr. J. Stuart

The direct expenditure which will be incurred by my Departments in connection with the Coronation is not likely to exceed £600. Grants to local authorities will be slightly increased as a result of local Coronation expenditure, but it is impossible to give a precise estimate at present of the increases involved.
