HC Deb 12 July 1932 vol 268 c1124W
Mr. TEMPLETON

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty if he will give the figures of meat purchases for the Navy for the past three months; and what would have been the cost if only home-produced meat had been supplied

Lard STANLEY

The expenditure on meat for the Navy in home waters during the last three months was about £21,000; if home-killed meat had been supplied, the cost would have been approximately doubled.
