Wages, &c., of Officers and Men of the Royal Navy and Royal Marines, and Civilians employed on Fleet Services.

Provision is made under this Vote for the effective monetary emoluments of :

(a) Officers and Men of the Royal Navy and Royal Marines (Subheads A and B), and

(b) Civilians employed on Fleet Services (Subheads G and H).

The provision under Subheads A and B of this Vote is primarily for the effective monetary emoluments of Naval and Marine Officers and Men, as distinct from the expenses of incidental services, e.g., victualling (Vote 2), and non-effective emoluments, i.e., unemployed and half and retired pay and pensions (Votes 13 and 14). In addition to this provision for "remuneration," the Vote provides for Marriage Allowance for Seamen, Marines, &c., and for contingent expenses connected with Recruiting Stations and Royal Marine Divisions.

The Officers and Men paid out of these Subheads include all ranks and ratings serving in seagoing ships, ranks and ratings serving in the Naval Depots (as distinct from the Dockyards, Vote 8), in Gunnery Schools and other Technical Training Establishments, Boys' Training Establishments, &c., in Naval W/T Stations and Signal Stations, and Royal Marines serving on shore.

Subheads G and H provide for the emoluments of Civilians who can be economically employed in lieu of Naval Officers and Men on duties connected with purely "Fleet" Services, as distinguished from Services which are definitely provided for in a separate Vote. In the latter category are included the Victualling Yards (Vote 2), Hospitals (Vote 3), Educational Establishments (Vote 5), Scientific Services (Vote 6), Dockyards (Vote 8), Naval Armament Establishments (Vote 9), Works Services (Vote 10), and Admiralty Office (Vote 12).

The total provision for the Vote is distributed under the several Subheads as follows:

His Majesty's Fleet.

Subhead A.-Remuneration of the Naval ranks and ratings proper as distinct from the Royal Marines.

Provision for the Naval Educational Staff for the Fleet has been transferred from Vote 5 to this Vote (Subhead A), in accordance with the general arrangement by which Vote 1 bears the cost of Naval personnel serving in H.M. Ships and Fleet Establishments.
