§ Sir B. FALLEasked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Admiralty if he can make any statement as to children's allowances in the Royal Navy; if he is aware of the very strong feeling which exists in the Navy on this subject; and if he can in any way justify the abolition of the allowance or deny the right of the Navy to its restoration?
§ Mr. LONGI am much obliged to my hon. and gallant Friend for postponing his question. I am afraid I can hold out no hope as regards the re-introduction of children's allowances.
