HC Deb 11 December 1935 vol 307 c887
16. Mr. DAVIDSON

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Admiralty what is the comparative cruiser strength of the first six naval Powers of the world, and the respective number of cruisers now being built by those Powers?

Lord STANLEY

I would call the attention of the hon. Member to the Command Paper "Fleets" which is being issued to-morrow morning, and in which he will find the full information he requires.

Mr. DAVIDSON

Is not the cruiser strength of the British Navy still far ahead of that of any other naval Power in the world?

Lord STANLEY

The hon. Member will be able to satisfy himself on that point when he reads the return.
