§ Commander Purseyasked the Secretary of State for Defence what changes he proposes to make in order to increase the number of officers' sons to be entered at the Royal Hospital School, Holbrook, Suffolk; and whether he will make a statement.
§ Mr. HayNo such changes are envisaged. As I stated in the course of the debate on Greenwich Hospital and Travers Foundation on 15th July, sons of direct entry officers and other officers having less than four years' service as ratings will be admitted only within a maximum of 10 per cent. of the entry.
