80. Mr. Thorne

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty what arrangements are being made for the officers and men who are serving in the Royal Navy to have their names inserted on the electoral roll in the constituencies where they reside.

Mr. J. P. L. Thomas

The requirements of the Parliament (Elections and Meeting) Act, 1943, and of the Regulations made under it, have been brought to the notice of all naval personnel; and the Board have emphasised the importance of every officer and man taking the action necessary to secure registration and to appoint proxies.

Lieut.-Commander Gurney Braithwaite

Are the Wrens also included?

Mr. Thomas

Yes, Sir.
