Aside from the usual schedule of exercises, 1930 saw "Rodney" visit Portrush, Northern Ireland in June, which named a street after the battleship, and a subsequent voyage to Iceland to commemorate the thousandth year of the Icelandic Parliament. Cunningham was relieved by Captain Roger Bellairs on 16 December. In mid-September 1931, the crew of "Rodney" took part in the Invergordon Mutiny when they refused orders to go to sea for an exercise, although they relented after several days when the Admiralty reduced the severity of the pay cuts that prompted the mutiny. Unhappy how Bellairs had handled the crew during the mutiny, the Admiralty ordered that he was to relieved by Captain John Tovey on 12 April 1932.
