HC Deb 07 August 1905 vol 151 c368
*MR. HUNT

I beg to ask the Secretary to the Admiralty if he can state the number of boys recruited for the Royal Navy from Ireland during the years 1903 and 1904.

MR. PRETYMAN

The boys recruited for the Royal Navy in Ireland in the financial years 1903–4 and 1904–5 numbered 232 and 139, respectively.

MR. SWIFT MACNEILL

How many did the "Calliope" get? Not half-a-dozen.
