HC Deb 07 August 1913 vol 56 c1747
56. Mr. GRETTON

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty if an account of the recent naval manœuvres will be issued, as was done on some previous occasions without detriment to the public service?

Dr. MACNAMARA

The question will be considered, but I see great difficulties, and cannot make any promise.

Mr. HUNT

Will the right hon. Gentleman say what the difficulties are, seeing the great importance of this matter?

Dr. MACNAMARA

No, Sir, I am not discussing the character of the manœuvres at all. It may not be in the public interest to publish the whole of the Report.
