§ Mr. MABANEasked the First Lord of the Admiralty whether, in view of the decision announced by the then First Lord of the Admiralty on 29th February, 1928, to the effect that admirals of the Fleet should, except when employed, be on the same footing in regard to political activities as retired officers, he will take immediate steps to amend paragraph 17a of King's Regulations for the Navy, which prohibits officers on the active list from offering themselves as Parliamentary candidates, so that admirals of the Fleet may be excluded, save when employed, from this prohibition?
