The Minister for the Co-ordination of Defence (Sir Thomas Inskip)

I am not able to make any statement at present.

Vice-Admiral Taylor

In view of the urgent necessity of an early decision regarding the future of the Fleet Air Arm, can the right hon. Gentleman indicate when he is likely to be able to finish his inquiry and make a statement?

I would rather not hazard any statement at the moment.

Will the right hon. Gentleman be as quick as he can in arriving at a decision?
