HC Deb 21 February 1917 vol 90 c1342
8. Sir FORTESCUE FLANNERY

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty if the contemplated Regulations for uniforms for officers of the mercantile marine will include engineer officers as well as navigating officers?

Mr. ROBERTS

My right hon. Friend has asked me to answer this question. Any arrangements made for standard uniforms for the Mercantile Marine would necessarily include engineer officers as well as deck officers.
