The Fourth Sea Lord and Chief of Naval Supplies was formerly one of the Naval Lords and members of the Board of Admiralty which controlled the Royal Navy of the United Kingdom.
The Fourth Sea Lord as Chief of Naval Supplies was responsible for supplying the navy, and his responsibilities included transport, victualling (supplying food), and medical services.
The post was abolished as a result of various reorganisations of the navy since 1945.
The modern equivalent of the Chief of Naval Supplies, is titled the Naval Member for Logistics, who is responsible for the logistical support and the supply chain of the navy.
