§ Sir R. Keyesasked the First Lord of the Admiralty whether he will consider amending the regulations to admit of naval ratings invalided from the service from foreign service to be granted the foreign-service leave carried to date of invaliding in addition to the leave granted on invaliding?
836W
Mr. CooperI am afraid that the concession suggested by my hon. and gallant Friend could not be justified. I will, however, consider whether invaliding leave itself can be increased, and will inform my hon. and gallant Friend of the result.
