HC Deb 29 July 1931 vol 255 cc2308-9W
Sir B. FALLE

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty whether he is aware that the present rate of advancement in the seaman, wireless telegraphy and signal branches is so slow as to discourage efficiency among the lower ratings; and whether he will take steps to deal with the matter?

Mr. ALEXANDER

Statistics do not disclose any undue slowness of advancement in the branches in question.
