HC Deb 19 May 1909 vol 5 cc526-7W
Mr. WEIR

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty, in view of the fact that His Majesty's Fleet frequently visits Cromarthy Firth and lies off Invergordon, where there is ample anchorage for the largest vessels afloat, will he consider the expediency of establishing a floating dock off that town, seeing that it is on the main line of railway and in direct communication with both the north and south, and forms an excellent base for coaling and other purposes?

Mr. McKENNA

I must refer my hon. Friend to the reply given to the hon. Baronet the Member for the Wick Burghs on Monday, the 10th May.
