§ CAPTAIN DONELAN (Cork, E.)I beg to ask the Secretary to the Admiralty whether H.M.S. Triumph, the present guardship at Queenstown, is about to be removed; and whether, in view of the dearth of employment at present existing in Cork Harbour, the overhauling and repairs which she requires will be carried out at Haulbowline previous to her departure?
§ MR. E. ROBERTSONThere is no idea of discontinuing a guardship at Queenstown, but the selection of any probable vessel for this duty will depend on the requirements of the Service. Arrangements have been made for undertaking such repairs to the Triumph at Haulbowlineas can be conveniently carried out there.
