§ Mr. EYRES-MONSELLasked the First Lord of the Admiralty whether he is aware that Marine officers who entered the service prior to January, 1912, while serving ashore in future may be drawing considerably less pay than officers junior to them who entered since January, 1912; and whether he proposes to take any steps to remedy this position?
§ Mr. CHURCHILLThe fact is as stated in the first part of the question. As regards the second part, the matter will receive consideration in due course, when the details of the Army scheme have been settled.
