HC Deb 18 June 1906 vol 158 c1331
MR. SLOAN

To ask the Secretary to the Admiralty if he can explain why stokers are being trained in the use of tools and machinery used in marine engineering, and who by this means obtain warrant rank, while men who are already trained can be obtained to do this class of work.

(Answered by Mr. Edmund Robertson.) I must refer the hon. Member to the Statement of Admiralty Policy [Cd. 2791] of last session, and the Reports on the New Scheme of Training [Cd. 2841] of this session.
