HC Deb 06 December 1920 vol 135 c1747W
Sir G. COLLINS

asked the Parliamentary Secretary of the Admiralty the amount of expenditure in the present Naval Estimates to be incurred for winding up the War?

Sir J. CRAIG

As explained in the statement of the First Lord of the Admiralty which accompanied the Navy Estimates for 1920–21, a total sum of £19,077,000 was included in the Estimates for non-recurrent war liabilities or terminal charges. It is expected that this amount will be exceeded during the course of the year, and provision for the additional amount required will be included in a Supplementary Estimate.
