HC Deb 30 June 1965 vol 715 c97W
Commander Pursey

asked the Secretary of State for Defence for how long education and maintenance were provided free for boys at the Royal Hospital Schools at Greenwich and Holbrook; and by what authority in the Greenwich Hospital Charter fees are now charged.

Mr. J. P. W. Mallalieu

Fees were introduced in 1957. The Greenwich Hospital Acts vest the authority to establish regulations for admission to the School of the Foundation exclusively in the Admiralty, and the authority to charge fees is contained in Statutory Instruments 1956 No. 1894.
