HC Deb 24 October 1918 vol 110 c948W
Mr. G. LAMBERT

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty whether he is aware of the dissatisfaction that exists among acting commanders and acting captains of the Royal Navy at their status and prospects; and whether he can give confirmed rank to such men who have during the War done their duty well in their acting ranks?

Dr. MACNAMARA

The question of what steps, if any, can be taken to improve the position of the officers referred to is now engaging the attention of the Admiralty.
