§ Colonel DAYasked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Overseas Trade Department the profit on the Weekly Bulletin of Empire Study, issued in connection with the British Empire Exhibition; whether it is proposed to continue the publication this year; and, if so, will he consider the desirability of allocating the profits for the purpose of paying the railway fares and other expenses of poor children who might not otherwise be able to visit the exhibition?
§ Lord E. PERCYI have been asked to reply to this question. According to the statement of the Comptroller and Auditor-General in his Report on the Appropriation Accounts, 1923–24, the net financial result of the venture is not yet available, but it is anticipated that there will be a profit of about £3,000. The1544W answer to the second part of the question is in the negative; the third part does not, therefore, arise.
