§ 26. Mr. Mathersasked the First Lord of the Admiralty whether he can now say if he intends to bring Port Edgar naval base into active use; and, if so, when this will be done?
§ Mr. ShakespeareI have nothing to add to the reply given to a similar question by the hon. Member on 3rd November, 1937.
§ Mr. MathersDoes not the Board of Admiralty consider that, when spending so much money on new equipment, they ought to use the old equipment and premises that they have available?
§ Mr. ShakespeareI think I should avoid raising false hopes that something will be done. The matter is under review.
