§ 26. Colonel PERKINSasked the First Lord of the Admiralty if he can inform the House of the nature of the Admiralty reply to the requests from the lower deck put forward by last year's Welfare Conference?
Mr. DAVIDSONI will send my hon. and gallant Friend a copy of the Admiralty Fleet Order containing the decisions.
§ Sir B. FALLEIs-it not a fact that 15 per cent. of the refusals of the requests put forward by the Welfare Conference were said to be absolutely final, and that the requests were not to be repeated by the Conference? In that case, what is the use of the Welfare Conference?
