HC Deb 06 May 1901 vol 93 c745
*SIR CHARLES DILKE

I beg to ask the Secretary to the Admiralty whether it would be possible to paint either all His Majesty's ships, or at least all ships in the Fleet Reserve, the colour which they are intended to be in war, as has now been done in certain foreign fleets.

MR. ARNOLD-FORSTER

The question to which the right hon. Gentleman refers is occupying the attention of the Admiralty.
