§ 28. Lieut.-Commander KENWORTHYasked the First Lord of the Admiralty whether a gratuity is given to the Royal Fleet Reserve men with the long service and good conduct medal, and, if so, how much it is; whether this gratuity is given to the Royal Naval Reserve men with the long service and good conduct medal, and, if so, how much it is; and what is the reason for the difference in the treatment of the two classes of reservists?
Mr. DAVIDSONNeither the Royal Fleet Reserve nor the Royal Naval Reserve Long Service and Good Conduct Medal carries with it any monetary grant. The last part of the question does not, therefore, arise.
