§ 24. Mr. MATHERSasked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Admiralty whether any decision has yet been made with regard to bringing Rosyth Dockyard and Port Edgar into active use; whether he will state when this will be done; and will he give particulars?
Lord STANLEYI regret that at the moment I am not able to add anything to the information which I have already given to the House, but I hope that a decision will be made very shortly.
§ Mr. MATHERSMay I ask the Parliamentary Secretary when he will be able to give a definite answer, and whether he knows how keenly a definite decision on this matter is anticipated in the area?
Lord STANLEYIf the hon. Member will put down a question next week, I hope that I shall be able to give him a full answer.
