HC Deb 07 April 1919 vol 114 c1686W
Sir LEICESTER HARMSWORTH

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty if he is aware of the discontent that prevails amongst many of the seamen of the Naval Reserve stationed at Malta; and what steps he proposes to take to allow of the early return of these men to this country?

Dr. MACNAMARA

We are aware of the disappointment naturally felt by all men hoping for early demobilisation, and steps are being taken to bring back to England, as far as they can be spared, from all foreign stations all men eligible for demobilisation.
