HC Deb 07 November 1945 vol 415 c1399W
Mr. Levy

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty whether the circumstances, particularly at the Toulon transit camp, endured by naval personnel returning home on "Medloc," can be circumvented by alloting to certain ships of the Mediterranean fleet the temporary task of ferrying these men home.

Mr. Alexander

No, Sir. The ships of the Mediterranean Fleet are all required on that station. Every opportunity is, however, already being taken of filling to capacity all H.M. ships returning from or through the Mediterranean station.
