HC Deb 17 July 1929 vol 230 c452W
Sir B. FALLE

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty whether he will consider an improved pattern of serge jumper for ratings dressed in Class II uniform, observing that the present contractor's jumper is too short in length and too wide in width, and hangs very badly, and that Class II ratings dislike this jumper, as will be found if examination is made of the number of ready-made jumpers which are purchased through the paymaster?

Mr. G. HALL

An improved pattern of serge jumper has been adopted recently to meet the points referred to by the hon. Member. New supplies are being made to this improved pattern, and they will be brought into general issue as stocks of previous pattern are used up.
