HC Deb 03 December 1930 vol 245 c2200
14. Mr. HORE-BELISHA

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty when the work on the "Almirante Lattore" will be completed; and if any arrangements are in view to absorb the employés who have been engaged on the work of this ship and thus obviate any necessity for their discharge?

Mr. ALEXANDER

The date for the completion of the work on the "Almirante Latorre" cannot be stated, but it is anticipated that, apart from normal wastage, there will in any case be sufficient work to enable the present level of employment in the dockyard to be maintained.
