HC Deb 08 May 1890 vol 344 c470
DR. TANNER

I beg to ask the First Lord of the Admiralty if he is aware that Mr. Wilcox, Lieutenant R.N. and Coastguard Officer at Spanish Point, Miltown Malbay, County Clare, acts as local agent for the Army and Navy Cooperative Stores, and has a shop fitted up and stocked in the locality, selling, amongst other things, wine, spirits, and tobacco; and if such conduct is in accordance with the regulations of the Admiralty; and, if not, whether instructions will be issued to Lieutenant Wilcox to desist from his present practices?

LORD G. HAMILTON

I must ask the hon. Member to postpone the question. I have not yet received the information.
