HC Deb 18 March 1903 vol 119 cc1090-1
MR. LOCKIE (Devonport)

To ask the Secretary to the Admiralty whether he will arrange that one of the new battleships provided for in the Navy Estimates shall be built at Devonport.

(Answered by Mr. Arnold-Forster.) It is not proposed to lay down one of the new battleships at Devonport, as both Devonport and Keyham will be fully occupied during the coming year with the work of construction and repair already allotted to them.
