HC Deb 24 June 1941 vol 372 c948
40. Mr. Stokes

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty the losses due to enemy action in the mercantile marine for the month of May?

Sir V. Warrender

This Return was made public on Friday last.

Mr. Stokes

What proportion of the figures represents merchant losses due to enemy action in Grecian waters?

Sir V. Warrender

I have nothing to add to the explanatory memorandum.

Mr. Stokes

Is the hon. Gentleman prepared to consider whether the figures should include merchant shipping losses in connection with the Navy?

Sir V. Warrender

I cannot answer these very complicated questions without notice. All possible information was included.
