SIR HENRY FLETCHERinquired whether the proposed re-organization scheme for the Royal Marines would be laid upon the Table in time for it to be discussed during the present Session?
§ MR. TREVELYANSir, there is nothing that can fairly be called a re- 850 organization scheme for the corps of Royal Marines, nor has any such been promised or foreshadowed. The alterations that are to be made will date back to the 1st of July, so that no one who is to be benefited by those alterations will suffer by the delay. I think the hon. and gallant Member's request a very fair one; and I will see if the details of our proposals can be laid before the House before it rises.
