§ 112. Mr. Kingasked the First Lord of the Admiralty whether he is aware that Lieutenant Anthony V. W. Bennett, R.N.V.R. (Sp), has not received any pay since 30th November, 1945; and what action he proposes to take in this matter.
§ Mr. AlexanderI regret the delay in this case which resulted from a misunderstanding as to where this officer was borne for pay. A cheque was sent to him on Thursday last
§ Mr. Dribergasked the First Lord of the Admiralty, if he will expedite the 225W delivery to an ex-seaman, of whose name and address he has been informed, of a suit for which he was measured on 28th November, 1945, at the Portsmouth depot, issue ticket No. 131759, and delivery of which was promised within a month.
§ Mr. AlexanderI regret that the delay in delivering this suit resulted primarily from its being sent on 14th December to the wrong address. Some time elapsed before it was returned to the Central Ordnance Depot and it was not until a letter was received from- the ex-seaman in the latter part of February that the correct address was ascertained. The suit has now been reposted.
