The Third Sea Lord was an officer of the Royal Navy with a position on the Board of Admiralty with responsibility for procuring and equipping the fleet.

History

By Order in Council of 21 December, 1906, the emoluments of the Third Sea Lord and Controller were raised from £1,500 a year to £1,750 a year, in addition to Naval Half Pay. The Controller then became £250 a year better off than the Second Sea Lord.[1]

The title of Third Sea Lord and Controller of the Navy was changed to Third Sea Lord with effect from 12 June, 1912.[2]

The office of Third Sea Lord received the designation Third Sea Lord and Chief of Naval Materiel by Order in Council of 23 October, 1917.[3]

The office of Controller was merged with that of Third Sea Lord on 25 June, 1918, and became once again Third Sea Lord and Controller of the Navy.[4]
