HC Deb 02 March 1910 vol 14 c833
Mr. BURGOYNE

asked the price paid by the Canadian Government for the cruiser "Niobe"; and when she was to be delivered?

Mr. McKENNA

The Admiralty are not at liberty to state the price fixed for the purchase of the "Niobe" by the Canadian Government, as the matter is still the subject of negotiation between the two Governments. The arrangement is subject to the approval of the Dominion Parliament.
