HC Deb 04 March 1909 vol 1 cc1703-4W
Mr. OWEN PHILIPPS

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty if he has now given the question of the possible advantages of floating docks over graving docks his consideration; and if he can now state the approximate cost of a floating dock large enough to take vessels of the "Dreadnought" class?

Mr. M'KENNA:

The matter is still under consideration. No approximate cost of a floating dock to take a "Dread-nought" can yet be given.
