HC Deb 31 July 1911 vol 29 cc20-1
Mr. YERBURGH

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty whether he has had under consideration the suggestions put forward for again providing India with her own Navy?

Mr. McKENNA

I am aware of the suggestion to which the hon. Member refers, but it has not yet come before the Board of Admiralty officially.

Mr. W. THORNE

When will the tenders be out for the new battleships?

Mr. McKENNA

I am afraid I cannot say that.
