17. Sir C. KINLOCH-COOKE

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty if he will give the names of the members of the Board of Admiralty whose resignations he has requested during his tenure of office as First Lord?

The FIRST LORD of the ADMIRALTY (Mr. Churchill)

No, Sir.

Sir C. KINLOCH-COOKE

Will the right hon. Gentleman kindly answer my question?

Mr. CHURCHILL

No, Sir!

Sir C. KINLOCH-COOKE

Am I not entitled to have an answer to my question?

Mr. SPEAKER

An answer to the question of the hon. Member has already been given. The hon. Member asked the First Lord of the Admiralty if he will give certain names, and the First Lord says that he will not.

Sir C. KINLOCH-COOKE

May I ask the right hon. Gentleman if he did not indicate the other day that if I put down a question on the Paper he would answer it?

Mr. CHURCHILL

No, Sir!
