Der Erste Lord der Admiralität, oder offiziell das Amt des Ersten Lords der Admiralität, war der politische Leiter der englischen und später britischen Royal Navy. Er war der oberste Berater der Regierung in allen Marineangelegenheiten und verantwortlich für die Leitung und Kontrolle der Admiralität sowie für die allgemeine Verwaltung des Marinedienstes des Königreichs England und später des Vereinigten Königreichs, einschließlich der Royal Navy, der Royal Marines und anderer Dienste. Es war eines der frühesten bekannten ständigen Regierungsämter. Er war nicht nur das offizielle Verwaltungsorgan der Royal Navy, sondern gleichzeitig auch Präsident des Board of Commissioners for Exercising the Office of Lord High Admiral. Das Amt des Ersten Lords der Admiralität bestand von 1628 bis 1964, als die Admiralität, das Luftfahrtministerium, das Verteidigungsministerium und das Kriegsministerium zum neuen Verteidigungsministerium zusammengelegt wurden. Sein heutiges Äquivalent ist der britische Verteidigungsminister Secretary of State for Defence.

Geschichte

1628 wurde mit Richard Weston, 1. Earl of Portland, der erste Lord der Admiralität, ernannt.[1][2] Während des größten Teils des 17. und des frühen 18. Jahrhunderts erfolgte die Leitung der Admiralität nicht durchgängig durch eine Kommission, so dass die Liste der Ersten Lords der Admiralität Lücken aufweist.

Nach der Glorious Revolution wurde während der Regierungszeit von Wilhelm III. der Admiralty Act verabschiedet, mit dem den Kommissaren die Befugnisse übertragen wurden, die zuvor der Lord High Admiral von England innehatte. Dieser wurde ab diesem Zeitpunkt zu einem ständigen Kabinettsposten[3] und entwickelte sich zu einem der Great Officers of State. Die Admiralitätskommission wurde 1701 aufgelöst, nach dem Tod des zum Lord High Admiral ernannten Georg von Dänemark[1] 1709 wiedereingesetzt. Seitdem war das Amt mit Ausnahme von 1827 bis 1828, als der Herzog von Clarence Lord High Admiral war, ständig aktiv. Das Board of the Admiralty bestand aus einer Reihe von "Lords Commissioners", die vom Ersten Lord geleitet wurden.[3]

Seit Anfang des 19. Jahrhunderts wurde das Amt immer von einem Zivilisten bekleidet. Zuvor hatten auch Flaggoffiziere der Royal Navy dieses Amt inne.[4] 1832 leitete der Erste Lord Sir James Graham Reformen ein und legte das Board of Admiralty und das Navy Board zusammen. Nach den Bestimmungen des Admiralty Act von 1832 konnten zwei Lords im Ausschuss jede Maßnahme des Board genehmigen.[5]

Die Zuständigkeit und die Befugnisse des Ersten Lords der Admiralität wurden durch Kabinettsorder vom 14. Januar 1869 festgelegt und die Verordnung vom 19. März 1872 machte den Ersten Lord gegenüber dem Souverän und dem Parlament für alle Geschäfte der Admiralität verantwortlich.[6][7] 1946 wurden die drei Ämter des Kriegsministers, des Ersten Lords der Admiralität und des Secretary of State for Air formell dem Amt des Verteidigungsministers untergeordnet, das 1940 zur Koordinierung von Verteidigungs- und Sicherheitsfragen geschaffen worden war. 1964 wurde das Amt des Ersten Lords der Admiralität abgeschafft und die Funktionen der See Lords wurden auf das Admiralty Board übertragen, das Teil des dienststellenübergreifenden Defence Council of the United Kingdom ist.[8]

Portrait of Admiral Sir Charles Wager (1666-1743)

oil on canvas

125.3 x 101.5 cm.; 49 ⅜ x 40 in.

Admiral Sir Charles Wager (1666-1743) was a Royal Navy officer and politician. He served mainly in the West Indies and after his successful expedition in Cartagena he was knighted in 1709. Furthermore, Wager was appointed First Lord of the Admiralty and Treasurer of the Navy around 1734. He was involved in the development of new bases in the Caribbean and was an early innovator in the use of citrus fruits against scurvy. He was subsequently elected MP for Westminster where his opinion was highly regarded, and his written letters survive to this day. He is buried in Westminster Abbey.

The most notable likeness of Admiral Sir Charles Wager is a three-quarter-length portrait by Sir Godfrey Kneller in the National Maritime Museum, London.
