HC Deb 01 May 1911 vol 25 c173W
Mr. CHARLES BATHURST

asked the Under-Secretary of State for War whether he is aware that no payment has yet been made to Mr. Robert White, of Bill-hay Farm, near Tisbury, in the county of Wilts, in respect of six sacks of oats sold to the Government in August last for the use of the Scots Greys, who were then quartered at his farm during the manœuvres; that no reply has been sent to any of his letters respectfully demanding payment of what is due to him; and whether it is proposed to leave this debt undischarged, owing to the neglect of some formality on the part of the vendor or for any other reason?

Colonel SEELY

Inquiries into this matter are still proceeding.
