HC Deb 16 February 1911 vol 21 c1413W
Lord CHARLES BERESFORD

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty how many men actually entered the Royal Navy during the year 1910–11?

Mr. McKENNA

I shall not be in a position to answer the Noble Lord's question until the 1st April next. Should he require a statement of the numbers of men entered into the Royal Navy between the 1st April, 1910, and the 11th February, 1911, inclusive, the figure is 7,864.
