HC Deb 02 October 1924 vol 177 cc321-2W
Sir T. BRAMSDON

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Admiralty if he is aware that, on account of the transfer of the Royal Marines to Eastney, certain housing difficulties are being experienced by married ranks; and will he give sympathetic consideration to men who are obliged to pay high rents on account of the shortage of housing accommodation by increasing the allowances applicable to such ranks?

Mr. AMMON

No objection has been or will be raised to these men continuing to reside at Gosport, where their homes presumably were at the date of the amalgamation of the Portsmouth and Eastney divisions.
