HC Deb 25 July 1923 vol 167 c436
26. Mr. PRIVETT

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Admiralty the number of women employed in the signal and wireless schools in the Royal Naval Barracks, Portsmouth, as tracers, valve testers, and clerks, and the amount of money per year required to meet these requirements; and whether he will, without detriment to any widows or single women who may have dependants solely depending upon their income from this source, substitute suitable ex-naval ratings with families rather than compel them to seek out-of-work relief?

Commander EYRES-MONSELL

I am having the desired information obtained, and will communicate with my hon. Friend as soon as it has been received.
