HC Deb 28 March 1923 vol 162 cc545-6W
Mr. WISE

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what subsidies the German Republic are paying at the present time?

Major BOYD-CARPENTER

In the absence of a revised Budget, taking account of recent changes in the value of the mark, it is impossible, to say to what extent Government undertakings are being run at a loss made good by the State or whether food is subsidised.
