§ MR. SWIFT MACNEILL (Donegal, S.)To ask the Secretary to the Admiralty whether having regard to the fact that the incident of the disturbances at the Naval Barracks at Portsmouth, which resulted in the trial by court martial, conviction, and sentence to lengthened terms of imprisonment of Stoker Moody and his comrades, has left no permanently injurious effects, the Admiralty will consider the advisability of remitting or curtailing the remaining period of the punishment of these men.
(Answered by Mr. Edmund Robertson.) The Board of Admiralty will in due course consider the advisability of the proceeding suggested by my hon. friend.
