§ Mr. Callaghanasked the First Lord of the Admiralty if he will give much wider publicity than at present to the movements of H.M. ships, so that relatives at home may be able to follow the whereabouts of their men folk.
Mr. AlexanderIn order to facilitate the release scheme, ships about to return home from a commission abroad make very considerable changes in their crews just before sailing. Until this situation alters I think that greater publicity for the movements of H.M. ships might cause more disappointments than pleasure. I will, however, keep the hon. Member's suggestion under review.
