HC Deb 12 April 2000 vol 348 c148W
Ms Squire

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence if Rosyth Dockyard and the Forth Estuary are docking places for the military vessels of the UK's NATO allies. [118644]

Mr. Spellar

MOD no longer owns either docking or berthing facilities in Rosyth. If NATO ships wished to dock in the former Naval Dockyard it would be by arrangement with the relevant commercial company. NATO warships regularly visit Leith and NATO Auxiliary vessels occasionally berth at Defence Munitions Crombie.
