HC Deb 20 March 1940 vol 358 c1958
10. Commander Sir Archibald Southby

asked the Secretary of State for Air whether any official inquiry has been or will be held into the circumstances surrounding the bombing by a German aircraft of the British steamship "Domala?"

The Secretary of State for Air (Sir Kingsley Wood)

The circumstances of this attack have been the subject of investigation, as is the practice in the case of all such enemy operations.

Sir A. Southby

Does my right hon. Friend appreciate that the attack was made from mast-head height, and that no British fighter aircraft took off?

Sir K. Wood

No Sir.

Mr. McGovern

Is it the case that the German aircraft indicated by signs that they were British aircraft?
