Sir M. Sueter

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Admiralty whether, having regard to the increasing importance of air work in the Fleet, he will consider the possibility of instituting an air branch of the Royal Naval Volunteer Reserve?

Mr. Shakespeare

I am happy to inform my hon. and gallant Friend that the institution of an air branch of the Royal Naval Volunteer Reserve has already been approved, and the detailed regulations concerning conditions of service and training will be published in a day or two.
