HC Deb 05 July 1911 vol 27 c1113
Mr. BURGOYNE

asked when it is expected the first submarine vessels of the E type will be completed for service; whether they will carry guns; and are they to be fitted with a system of wireless telegraphy?

Mr. McKENNA

The first vessels of the E type will probably be ready about the middle of next year. As to the second and third parts of the question, it is not in the public interest to furnish such information as requested for vessels under construction.
