HC Deb 15 March 1916 vol 80 c2075
52. Sir THOMAS ESMONDE

asked the Minister of Munitions what steps have been taken to place contracts for the manufacture of 9.2 shells in Dublin; and how soon is it proposed to proceed with the work?

Mr. LLOYD GEORGE

I received a deputation from Ireland on Friday, the 10th instant, when this question was discussed. Arrangements are being made to extend the Dublin National Shell Factory so that 9.2 in. shell may be produced there.
