HC Deb 01 June 1916 vol 82 cc2933-4W
Sir HAROLD ELVERSTON

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty whether a man can be discharged from the Navy against his wish when he is in good health and has not committed any offence against the Naval Discipline Act; if so, for what reason?

Dr. MACNAMARA

The Board of Admiralty have power to dispense with the services of any man who is found to be unsuitable for retention in the Royal Navy, or whose services are no longer required.
