HC Deb 16 February 1911 vol 21 c1413W
Mr. FRANCE

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty if he is prepared to inquire into the present method of disposing of unused stores by auction, and to consider the substitution of a more economical method?

Mr. McKENNA

The best methods of disposing of unused stores are subject to frequent consideration, and other methods than auction are resorted to whenever desirable in the public interests.
