asked the Home Secretary whether there is any machinery by which breaches of the Burial Acts are brought to the notice of his Department.

I presume my honourable Friend refers to Section 25 of the Burial Act, 1857, which prohibits the removal of human remains without either the licence of the Secretary of State or an ecclesiastical faculty. The rare cases which occur are dealt with by the police in the usual way.

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty what countries were, or are to be, represented at any naval manœuvres or reviews this year, stating the number and category of officers in each case.

No foreign warships will be present at the Review at Spithead, nor will any foreign officers be on board His Majesty's Ships, unless in the capacity of private guests. The Naval attachés, as part of the Diplomatic Corps, will be His Majesty's Government's guests at the Review and will be accommodated in one of the guest ships. No foreign officers have attended, or are expected to attend any manœuvres or exercises this year.
