HC Deb 26 February 1883 vol 276 cc831-2
SIR H. DRUMMOND WOLFF

asked the Secretary to the Admiralty, Whether any step has been taken to improve the pay and position of the sick berth staff of the Navy?

MR. CAMPBELL-BANNERMAN

No, Sir; no decision has yet been arrived at regarding the pay and position of the sick berth staff. The matter is part of a large question which is under consideration, extending to the whole system of attendance on the sick, both in naval hospitals and afloat.
