§ 8. Mr. Watkinsonasked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Admiralty whether submarines with fast submerged 917 speeds are now freely available for training exercises with anti-submarine flotillas.
§ Mr. CallaghanA number of fast submarines are available, but I shall not be satisfied until we have more.
§ Mr. WatkinsonI am glad to hear that, but the Parliamentary Secretary did tell the House the other day that he was giving the utmost priority to new devices for anti-submarine warfare, and I hope that those new devices will not be available to crews who cannot be trained because of the lack of targets.
