§ ADMIRAL MAYNEI beg to ask the First Lord of the Admiralty whether, in view of the general dissatisfaction now existing with respect to the police in Her Majesty's ships, he will take steps to improve their position, and so induce petty officers and other seamen of standing and good character to join the Force?
§ *LORD G. HAMILTONThis matter is now under consideration; but as it involves questions beyond those connected with the improvement of the position and pay of ships police, it requires very careful investigation, and a final decision has not yet been arrived at.
