HC Deb 30 July 1952 vol 504 c1462
22. Lieut.-Commander Hutchison

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty if he will now make a statement on the future of the Navy Ordnance Inspection Department.

The First Lord of the Admiralty (Mr. J. P. L. Thomas)

I have made some progress in this matter since I replied to my hon. and gallant Friend on 30th January, but I regret I am not yet in a position to make a statement on this subject.
