Mr. NORTON-GRIFFITHSasked (1) whether the shipbuilding yards of this country are already full to overflowing, and whether this position will delay the construction of the three ships which it is suggested the Dominion of Canada will contribute as an emergency contribution; and (2) whether, immediately upon cable information from the Canadian Government that the Dominion Parliament has authorised the emergency contribution of seven millions sterling now under discussion, he will take immediate steps to have the "Dreadnoughts" laid, down?
§ Mr. CHURCHILLAs I informed the hon. Member for Fareham yesterday, questions on this subject would appear to be premature until the assent of the Dominion Parliament has been given to the measure now before it.
