Amendment on reward and naval establishment debate in House
The debate covers an amendment to cap the reward at 70,000l with Mr Barks opposing the large sum and Mr Wisdham supporting. The Chancellor of the Exchequer notes the discovery’s importance but argues 70,000l suffices. Votes turn, and a larger naval voting plan for 70,000 troops for seven months is outlined, including 14,200 marines and various costs.
