HC Deb 24 April 1907 vol 173 c30
MR. T. L. CORBETT (Down, N.)

I beg to ask the Secretary to the Admiralty whether the Channel fleet is to visit Kingstown early in May; and whether a visit will also be paid to Bangor, county Down.

THE SECRETARY To THE ADMIRALTY (Mr. EDMUND ROBERTSON,) Dundee

The "Hibernia" and three other vessels of the Channel fleet will visit Kingstown on the 2nd May, but no arrangements have been made for a visit to Bangor. I may, however, add that the Atlantic fleet will visit Irish ports later in the summer, but the programme has not yet been definitely arranged.

MR. T. L. CORBETT

I hope the northern town will not be left out.

MR. EDMUND ROBERTSON

The programme has not been definitely arranged, but the matter will not be lost sight of.
