HC Deb 29 June 1938 vol 337 cc1937-8W
Mr. Parker

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty whether he will state the individual ranks and pensions of the retired officers employed all the year, and partly, at the Home ports and the Admiralty for the seven days Navy Week organisation and publicity, and the salaries of each officer from Navy Week funds?

Mr. Cooper

The duties of Navy Week Liaison Officer at the Admiralty occupy part of the time of a retired Commander. His pension is £407 10s. per annum and his salary from Navy Week Funds £400 per annum. The three retired officers employed by the Navy Week Committee at the Home Ports hold the ranks of Lieut.-Commander, Commander, and Paymaster Captain. They receive retired pay ranging from £97 10s. to £543 per annum and salaries from Navy Week Funds ranging from £275 to £470 per annum. They are all employed continuously, but two of them are on only a part-time basis.
