RATES OF NAVAL PAY.

Minister's Reply to Criticism of Sir F. Banbury.

Mr. L. S. Amery has sent a letter to Sir Frederick Banbury replying to his criticisms of the rates of pay of the personnel of the Navy since 1914. He shows. that as a result of the Halsey Committee's recommendations in 1919 the pay of officers was raised to about 30 per cent. above the pre-war rates.

Increased cost of living count- led, but unquestionably the 1914 cates were not adequa e Rates

of full pay of flag officers had not been altered since 1816, and no improven ent had been made in captains pay for the last fif y years.

Therefore the Goverment in decided to regard only 20 per cent. approving the new rates in 1919. being duela the bigher cost of
