HC Deb 03 June 1880 vol 252 cc1077-8
LORD HENRY LENNOX

asked the Secretary to the Admiralty, When he will be in a position to lay upon the Table of the House the Report of the Committee which has recently been inquiring into the re-organization of the Royal Marines?

MR. SHAW LEEEVRE

I am unable at present to give a definite reply-to the noble Lord. The Report to which he alludes is a Departmental Report dealing with a very important subject. It has only just been presented to the Admiralty, and Lord Northbrook and his Colleagues have not yet been able to decide what action they will take upon it. Till then I shall be unable to say whether it will be laid upon the Table of the House.
