§ Mr. LUNNasked the First Lord of the Admiralty whether his Department have any control over naval officer undergraduates at Cambridge; if so, whether his attention has been drawn to the action of some of these men in connection with a meeting promoted by the Union of Democratic Control in St. Andrew's Hall, 1823W Cambridge; whether he is aware that many acts of violence were committed; and whether he can take any action to prevent further outrages of a similar character on freedom of speech and public meeting?
§ Dr. MACNAMARANaval officer undergraduates at Cambridge are subject to the Naval Discipline Act, and a Captain, R.N., is resident at Cambridge and responsible for their discipline. The attention of the Admiralty has been drawn to the disturbances which occurred at the meeting referred to; but, so far as can be ascertained, only two naval officer undergraduates were present. One took part in the disturbance, and disciplinary action has been taken in his case; the other fell from the roof of a building, and is now in hospital.
