HC Deb 17 April 1893 vol 11 c437
MR. WILLIAM ALLAN (Gateshead)

I beg to ask the Civil Lord of the Admiralty if he can state the number and class of obsolete war vessels sold during 1892 and to present date, to whom sold, with the prices received for each vessel?

THE CIVIL LORD OF THE ADMIRALTY (Mr. E. ROBERTSON,) Dundee

The information cannot be conveniently given in the shape of a verbal reply, as the particulars relate to some 20 vessels, but I shall be pleased to furnish a copy to my hon. Friend if that will serve his purpose.
