§ Viscount SANDONasked the First Secretary to the Treasury the amount of debts due to Government Departments, exclusive of international debts, which have had to be written off in 1924 and the post-War years?
§ Mr. R. McNEILLThe published annual appropriation accounts for the Civil Service, Navy, Army, and Air Force contain 955W particulars of the debts which it has been found impossible to recover. But to give a complete answer to the question would involve an amount of work which I fear it would be impossible to justify.
