§ MR. A. C. MORTON (Peterborough)I beg to ask the Secretary to the Admiralty whether the statements with regard to the deficiences in H.M.S. Garnets canteen fund are correct; whether it is correct that some of the officers were in the habit of borrowing from the canteen fund on I. O. U's., the president being among the number; and whether he will order an inquiry into the whole circumstances?
THE SECRETARY TO THE ADMIRALTY (Sir U. KAY-SHUTTLEWORTH, Lancashire, Clitheroe)This case has been the subject of a Court Martial held on the Pacific Station, the minutes of which are now under the consideration of the Admiralty.
