§ 10. Mr. R. J. Taylorasked the First Lord of the Admiralty whether naval reservists, on being recalled to the Service and now serving on one of His Majesty's ships (Depot), are given the same privileges as to duty-free cigarettes and tobacco as are applicable to sea-going ratings?
§ Sir V. WarrenderNaval reservists who have been called up enjoy exactly the same customs privileges as all other ratings. These privileges depend on the status of the ship or establishment, and are only granted in full to sea-going ships. Men in shore establishments and non-seagoing depot ships which fulfil certain conditions can obtain Service tobacco free of duty.
