The New Navy List 1840 to 1856 Archive.org, including 1850 and 1852. This is a commercial publication, not an official List from the Admiralty.
The Archive.org collection Admiralty (Great Britain) publications which mainly consists of Navy Lists (excluding war years) which is searchable as a collection.

Also included on Archive.org from the collection of the National Library of Scotland on Archive.org
the sub collection British Navy Lists, in respect of the Royal Navy for the 1st and 2nd World War periods, searchable as a collection.

The Lists were initially published on a monthly basis, but some years were only published quarterly. Monthly Naval Lists appear to have been published for the period 1913-1920, but not all are available digitally. The lists below covering 1913, 1914, 1918, 1919 and 1920 contain both monthly and quarterly editions. The Quarterly Navy Lists were published January, April, July and October. The NLS holding does not include monthly lists for those months covered by quarterly lists, and it is probable that in fact there was only one List, not two, published when there was a Quarterly edition.

The Lists are also available on the website of the NLS, with transcriptions available, together with a Search facility, as Navy Lists: 1913 to 1944. Some researchers prefer the NLS website for searching, but prefer Archive.org for general reading.

Note: During the First and Second World Wars there were two separate editions of the Navy List, one of which was a Confidential version for official use only, the other being an expurgated version available to the general public. Available at the National Archives, Kew Series ADM 177 1914-1945 Admiralty: Navy Lists, Confidential Edition. Most, perhaps all, are available to download from the National Archives website. In normal circumstances there is a fee charged, however currently (2022/02) due to covid conditions, the downloads are free.
In addition the British Library holds Supplement to the Monthly Naval list : showing organisation of the fleet, flag officers' commands, &c. (Jan. 1915-July 1919), a monthly publication (missing some months). UIN: BLL01004135118.

Report on the Health of the Navy

Title varied. Initially titled Statistical Report on the Health of the Navy, and some editions possibly may have been titled Statistical Report of the Health of the Navy. Also A Statistical Return of the Health of the Royal Navy. Later titles may have omitted Statistical. It appears to have been published generally annually from 1830, through to c 1936 by HMSO [His/Her Majesty's Stationery Office] and also presented to the House of Commons as a Parliamentary Paper. Accordingly it should be available through the subscription website UK Parliamentary Papers, see Subscription websites-online newspapers, journals and directories for details and suggested access. Your Library needs to have subscribed for the module covering the period required.
