HC Deb 14 April 1920 vol 127 cc1650-1
8. Commander Viscount CURZON

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty when the official account of the Battle of Jutland will be published?

Sir J. CRAIG

The official record is now in the hands of the printers, but I understand that technicalities connected with the production make it improbable that publication can take place in much less than three months from now.

Viscount CURZON

Is the hon. and gallant Gentleman aware that the First Lord of the Admiralty stated that this account of the Battle of Jutland would be published about a month after the first volume of the History of the War?

Sir J. CRAIG

I went into the matter very carefully, and I understand it is purely a technical difficulty. It would be impossible to hold out any hopes before three months.
