§ SIR BERKELEY SHEFFIELD (Lincolnshire, Brigg)I beg to ask the Secretary to the Admiralty if the allowance of ammunition for gun practice in the Nore division of the Home Fleet is the same as that allowed to the Channel, Mediterranean, and Atlantic Fleets.
§ MR. EDMUND ROBERTSONThe Answer is in the affirmative, as has already been stated by my hon. friend the Civil Lord, in reply to a previous Question from the hon. Member on Monday last.
§ MR. ARTHUR LEE (Hampshire, Fareham)Has there been any change of policy since the First Lord announced that the ships of the Home Fleet would be put on an allowance of thirteen-sixteenths of the ammunition issued to the ships on the Mediterranean and Atlantic stations?
§ MR. EDMUND ROBERTSONI should like notice of that Question.
§ CAPTAIN HERVEY (Bury St. Edmunds)Does this include the ammunition usually allotted for prize firing and ordinary target practice?
§ MR. EDMUND ROBERTSONI should think so, but I had better have notice.
