HC Deb 11 March 1947 vol 434 c159W
94 Brigadier Low

asked the Secretary of State for War under what Vote £38,000,000 due to losses in Dutch, German and Austrian currency were written off in the Army Estimates, 1946.

Mr. Bellenger

The £38 million is charged to Balances Irrecoverable and Claims Abandoned in the Army Account for 1945/46 which will be published shortly. There was no provision for this in the original Estimates for 1945/46 or 1946–47.
