HC Deb 10 May 1939 vol 347 cc482-3
72. Lieut.-Commander Fletcher

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Admiralty whether, under the terms of the Anglo-German Naval Agreement details of the designs of all our new ships, including capital ships building and projected and of new anti-submarine craft have been given to the German authorities; and whether similar information concerning all German ships building and projected has been received by the Admiralty?

Mr. Shakespeare

The reciprocal exchange of information allowed for under the Anglo-German Agreement of 1937 has hitherto been carried out by both Governments.

Lieut.-Commander Fletcher

Have we received particulars of all the latest German ships building and projected?

Mr. Shakespeare

That is so.
