HC Deb 07 May 1888 vol 325 cc1463-4
CAPTAIN PRICE (Devonport)

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty, Whe- ther any representations have been made to the Treasury, as to the injustice of remunerating the Seamen Pensioners' Reserve out of the Funds of Greenwich Hospital instead of out of the Consolidated Fund?

THE FIRST LORD (Lord GEORGE HAMILTON) (Middlesex, Ealing)

The Admiralty has been in correspondence with the Treasury; but the Treasury does not see its way to sanctioning the transfer to the Navy Votes of the remuneration paid out of the Funds of Greenwich Hospital to the Seamen Pensioners' Reserve.
