HC Deb 07 May 1923 vol 163 c1935W
Mr. D. SOMERVILLE

asked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury how many Government Departments are still using War-time economy envelopes; and how much money is actually saved by so doing?

Major BOYD-CARPENTER

The economy label for envelopes is still being used in Government Departments generally. It is estimated that the saving effected by its use during the year ended 31st March, 1923, amounted approximately to £1,000.
