HC Deb 10 July 1882 vol 271 cc1955-6
MR. MAC IVER

asked the Secretary to the Admiralty, Whether he can inform the House what has become of Her Majesty's ship "Thunderer;" and, if it is true that this heavily armed and formidable vessel is, from motives of economy, lying dismantled at Malta?

MR. CAMPBELL-BANNERMAN

The Thunderer is at Malta Dockyard, undergoing the usual repairs preparatory to being re-commissioned. The hon. Member will find her included in the programme of repairs at that Dockyard, on page 203 of the Navy Estimates for this year.
