HC Deb 01 December 1947 vol 445 c30W
Group Captain Wilcock

asked the Secretary of State for Air whether he is aware that the sum of £5,000 that was collected at the Mansion House in 1938 for the Air Defence Cadet Corps has been handed to the Air League; and why this sum is not instead utilised for the Air Training Corps.

Mr. A. Henderson

The funds of the Air Defence Cadet Corps have never been under the control of my Department. I understand that it was by decision of the executive committee of the Corps that the balance of its funds was handed over to the Air League.
