HC Deb 27 February 1957 vol 565 cc181-2W
105. Mr. E. L. Mallalieu

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Admiralty whether, in view of the growing dissatisfaction with present arrangements, he will see that in future men actually serving at sea and deprived of the comfort of home and family are paid at a higher rate than those able to live ashore.

Mr. Soames

No. Naval rates of pay and allowances are framed to take account of the incidence of sea service and shore service.
