§ SIR JOHN PAKINGTONsaid, in reply, that, so far as the navy was concerned—though he did not know what his right hon. Friend (General Peel) might be disposed to do with regard to the army— he had no objection to lay on the table the Report of the Royal Commission. It was his intention to adopt their recommendations, and he had that evening laid upon the table a 'Supplemental Estimate with a view of carrying them into effect.
