HC Deb 13 February 1914 vol 58 c464W
Lord C. BERESFORD

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty if he will state to the House how many ships of all classes building for the Navy have been delayed in their completion through strikes and other labour troubles; and what are their names and the period for which each ship was delayed?

Mr. CHURCHILL

I hope to deal generally with this subject when the Naval Estimates are under discussion, but it would not be in the public interest to give the details for which the Noble Lord asks.
