HC Deb 27 June 1927 vol 208 c30
48. Sir BERTRAM FALLE

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty whether he is aware that because an irregularity occurred in the administration of the petty officers' mess in the Royal Naval Barracks, Portsmouth, that mess has been placed on the general messing system against the wishes of the members of the mess; and whether the privilege of petty officers making their own messing arrangements is now withdrawn?

The PARLIAMENTARY SECRETARY to the ADMIRALTY (Lieut.-Colonel Headlam)

I am having inquiries made and will let my hon. and gallant Friend know as soon as they are completed.

Lieut.-Commander KENWORTHY

On a point of Order. May I draw attention to the spelling of "Royal Naval Barracks" in this question as it appears on the Order Paper? Is it not usual to use capital letters for the words "Royal Naval"? Can this be altered in the OFFICIAL REPORT?

Mr. SPEAKER

I will look into the matter.
