HC Deb 26 July 1939 vol 230 c1584W
Mr. HORE-BELISHA

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty whether it is contemplated making any further reduction in naval officers?

Mr. AMMON

I assume that the hon. Member has in mind the possibility of a further special retirement scheme for officers, in addition to the scheme for lieut-commanders now in force. No such scheme is at present under consideration.
