HC Deb 03 March 1910 vol 14 cc987-8
Mr. MIDDLEMORE

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty whether any arrangements have been made for laying up a number of torpedo-boat destroyers in charge of care and maintenance parties; and, if so, will he state the number of boats in each group and the strength and composition of the parties that have been or will be detailed to each group?

Mr. McKENNA

Unless the hon. Member refers to destroyers laid up for long refit the answer is in the negative.
