HC Deb 29 January 1947 vol 432 cc188-9W
Mr. Dodds-Parker

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Admiralty when salvage award on s.s. "Jan Van Goyens" will be paid to H.M. Rescue Tug "Prosperous."

Mr. W. Edwards

It is expected that an award to the officers and men of His Majesty's Rescue Tug "Prosperous" for the salvage of the s.s. "Jan Van Goyens" will be made in the course of the next few weeks.

Mr. Dodds-Parker

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Admiralty what award will be made to H.M. Tug "Prosperous" for the salvage of, and repairs to, s.s. "Halfried."

Mr. W. Edwards

I am not yet in a position to state what award will be made to the officers and men of His Majesty's Rescue Tug "Prosperous" for the services rendered to the s.s. "Halfried," but I hope that the matter will be settled at an early date.
