HC Deb 01 July 1915 vol 72 cc1946-7W
Mr. MacVEAGH

asked the Under-Secretary for War whether he can state if the War supplies being purchased in Canada are still being obtained through the Canadian Government; and, if the services of other buyers have also been obtained, whether he can state in round terms the proportion being purchased by the Canadian Government?

Mr. FORSTER

Munitions of war and forage are purchased through the Canadian Government and represent in value about 80 per cent. of the total purchases made in Canada since the outbreak of war.
