§ 100. Mr. Willisasked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Admiralty whether, in the proposed plans for the reconstruction of the R.N. barracks, Devonport, arrangements will be made to provide a separate mess for all chief and engine-room artificers, in accordance with the regulations contained in Article 626. K.R. & A.I.
§ Mr. W. EdwardsThe provision of a separate mess for chief and engine-room artificers will be carefully considered, but present indications are that better accommodation and facilities will be possible if chief petty officers and petty officers of all branches share their respective messes. This will also result both in economy of building and of manpower.
