(a) The figures given above omit all expenditure which is merely a matter of account, i.e., the clothing, stores, &c., issued on repayment, as well as the Deferred Pay, Gratuities on Discharge and Non-Effective Pay of the Army in India. These do not form part of the expense of the Army on the Imperial Establishment, and are balanced by the money received as Appropriations in Aid. The only receipts that remain to be deducted are, therefore, the Contributions from India, the Colonies, and Egypt, amounting to 937,0007.
