I have been asked to reply. My hon. Friend presumably has in mind officers who have retired from the Royal Navy after attachment to the Royal Air Force for service with the Fleet Air Arm. Such officers, if of appropriate age, are eligible to join the Royal Air Force Reserve and are trained under the normal reserve arrangements.

Secretary of State

Secretary of State was originally the title given to the two officials who conducted the Royal Correspondence under Elizabeth I. Now it is the title held by some of the more important Government Ministers, for example the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs.
