HC Deb 14 March 1951 vol 485 c184W
Mr. Langford-Holt

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Admiralty how many Fleet Air Arm pilots are at present on the active list; and what percentage of those who possessed short service commissions have been granted permanent commissions.

Mr. Callaghan

It would be contrary to policy to give the figure asked for in the first part of the Question. The answer to the second part is 49 per cent.
