§ 68. Sir BERTRAM FALLEasked the First Lord of the Admiralty whether the revised messing Regulations contained in paragraph 4 of the King's Regulations and Admiralty Instructions, Article 626, Chapter XIV, as amended by King's Regulations 10/27 of February, 1927, have been put into force in His Majesty's Ship "Vernon"; and, if not, when it is anticipated that the alterations will be made?
§ Lieut.-Colonel HEADLAMThe answer to the first part of the question is in the negative. As regards the second part, local naval authorities are authorised to depart from this Regulation so far as local conditions and the nature of the existing accommodation render other arrangements necessary, and it is understood that this is the case in His Majesty's Ship "Vernon."
