§ 25. Viscount CURZONasked the First Lord of the Admiralty if the shore staff at Milford Haven still occupy two houses, an old hotel, and a new brick building, the same amount of accommodation as during the War, though the staff has been reduced from 40 officers and a large number of ratings to six officers and men in proportion; and whether, in view of the need for economy and the shortage of houses, he will cause some of the accommodation to be relinquished?
§ Sir J. CRAIGThe Admiralty occupation of these premises has ceased. The hotel was surrendered on the 21st instant. The Admiralty tenancy of the two houses (which are now empty) will cease on the 25th December, 1920. Negotiations for the disposal of the brick building to the owner of the land are in progress.
