HC Deb 11 August 1893 vol 16 c14
LORD G. HAMILTON (Middlesex, Ealing)

I beg to ask the Financial Secretary to the Admiralty when it is proposed to resume the discussion on Navy Estimates; and when the Bill will be introduced to give legality to the expenditure upon the dockyard-built ships above the sum fixed by the Naval Defence Act?

*SIR U. KAY-SHUTTLEWORTH

We hope to proceed with Navy Estimates immediately after the Government of Ireland Bill. A Bill amending the Naval Defence Act has been drafted, and will be introduced as soon as possible.

MR. HANBURY

Does that mean after the Third Reading of the Irish Bill?

*SIR C. KAY-SHUTTLEWORTH

That depends on circumstances.
