HC Deb 10 December 1908 vol 198 cc740-1
MR. MIDDLEMORE

I beg to ask the First Lord of the Admiralty what steps are being taken to increase the capacity of naval ports for the storage of oil suitable for combustion in warships.

MR. MCKENNA

The question of the provision of oil fuel storage continues to receive the close attention of the Admiralty; but it is not desirable in the public interest to make any detailed statement in reply to the hon. Member's Question.
