§ Mr. Willisasked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Admiralty why instructors' pay at the appropriate rate is not payable to chief and engine room artificers.
Mr. DugdaleInstructor's pay is issuable only where it is necessary for the instructor to acquire a special knowledge of his subject beyond that required to qualify for the highest rating of his branch. These circumstances do not obtain in the case of chief and engine room artificers employed on instructional duties.
