§ Captain Kerbyasked the Secretary of State for Defence to what extent, in view of Her Majesty's Government's decision to complete only four Polaris missile submarines, only one such submarine will be available for patrol; and if he is satisfied that these submarines will make an adequate contribution to the Western deterrent.
