HC Deb 14 October 1915 vol 74 cc1458-9
36. Mr. FELL

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty if the officers and seamen employed by the Admiralty in mine sweeping and patrolling will be entitled to share in the prize money at the end of the War?

Dr. MACNAMARA

Speaking generally, the answer is in the affirmative, but I cannot make a definite statement pending the formulation of the exact conditions of eligibility and distribution.

Sir A. MARKHAM

Will the right hon. Gentleman take care that the Foreign Office do not pinch this money?
