§ 80. Mr. NEVILLEasked the First Lord of the Admiralty whether Admiral Sir Doveton Sturdee's dispatch relative to his expedition to, and the naval action fought near, the Falkland Islands has been published in its entirety, or have any parts been omitted in the dispatch as published?
§ Mr. CHURCHILLAll dispatches are carefully edited by the Admiralty, and in the case of the Grand Fleet Squadrons by the Commander-in-Chief as well; and nothing is allowed to appear which throws too much light on British naval tactics or gunnery. Recommendations in regard to individuals are only made public to the extent and in the form in which they are concurred in by the Admiralty.
