HC Deb 07 July 1937 vol 326 c324
12. Major Neven-Spence

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty why the recent visit of His Majesty's Ship "Ramillies" to Lerwick was curtailed suddenly?

Mr. Cooper

The recent visit of His Majesty's Ship "Ramillies" to Lerwick had to be curtailed owing to bad weather. I can assure my hon. and gallant Friend that the necessity for the premature departure of the ship was regretted both by her officers and company and by the Board of Admiralty.
