HC Deb 07 November 1939 vol 353 c68W
Sir H. Williams

asked the Prime Minister what charge on public funds will be entailed by the activities conducted by the Royal Institute of International Affairs from a provincial headquarters?

Mr. Butler

I have been asked to reply. The exact amount of the grant in aid referred to in the reply given to the hon. and gallant Member for Wycombe (Sir A. Knox) by my hon. Friend the Financial Secretary to the Treasury on 3rd October last, has not yet been fixed; but it will probably not exceed £35,000 for the present financial year.
