HC Deb 16 April 1930 vol 237 c2883
18. Mr. DOUGLAS HACKING

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty whether he can state the approximate number of persons who will be thrown out of work as a consequence of the decision to build no ships of war during the present financial year?

Mr. ALEXANDER

The right hon. Member is under a misapprehension. No such decision has been arrived at.
