HC Deb 09 March 1964 vol 691 c16W
69. Mr. Emrys Hughes

asked the Civil Lord of the Admiralty how many recruits joined the Royal Navy from the different counties in Scotland in 1963; and what were the figures in each county for January and February this year.

Mr. Hay

I regret that the total numbers recruited from the individual counties in Scotland are not readily available. The number recruited to the Royal Navy and Royal Marines through the regional recruiting offices in Scotland in 1963 was 846, and for the months of January and February of this year 160.

The following information is available:

Regional Recruiting Office 1963 January and February, 1964
Glasgow 350 87
Edinburgh 206 29
Dundee 130 19
Aberdeen 113 17
Inverness 47 8
