asked the First Lord of the Admiralty what assistance is being rendered by his Department to Sir Hubert Wilkins; and whether any arrangements are being made for an escort for the submarine "Nautilus" on her voyage north from Empire waters?

Mr. AMMON

The "Nautilus" has been taken in hand at Devonport Dockyard for docking, cleaning and coating bottom, and carrying out certain repairs to her machinery and electrical equipment. The answer to the second part of the question is in the negative.
