HC Deb 17 March 1926 vol 193 cc403-4
15. Mr. HORE-BELISHA

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty whether, in view of the fact that the numbers of men established in His Majesty's dockyards in the years 1922, 1923, 1924 and 1925 are considerably short of the numbers established in the years immediately prior to the War, he can hold out any hope that more men will be able to look forward to establishment in the near future?

Mr. DAVIDSON

The answer is in the negative.
