HC Deb 11 June 1902 vol 109 c354
LORD CHARLES BERESFORD (Woolwich)

To ask the Secretary to the Admiralty whether arrangements can be made to send a certain number of naval officers on board the vessels chartered to convey the Members of the Houses of Parliament to the Coronation Review at Spithead, in order that accurate information regarding the Fleet may be given to Members desirous of obtaining it; and whether, if this suggestion be approved of, will he consider the advisability of employing the officers of the Signal School at Portsmouth for this duty.

(Answer.) Arrangements have already been made for naval officers to accompany the vessels conveying Members of the Houses of Parliament to the Naval Review for the purpose of giving information to Members desirous of obtaining it. It has not been found necessary to detail officers of the Signal School at Portsmouth for this duty.—(Admiralty.)
