HC Deb 24 March 1920 vol 127 c445W
Mr. RAMSDEN

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will ear-mark the whole of the surplus war stores, variously estimated at £500,000,000 to £600,000,000 sterling, for the immediate reduction of the floating debt; and, if not, to what purpose docs he intend to apply them?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

I must ask the hon. Member to await the Budget statement.
