§ Commander BELLAIRSasked the First Lord of the Admiralty how many floating 1338W docks does this country possess which, could dock the "Hood," including in his estimate such of the surrendered German floating docks as are capable of being made large enough for this purpose; and whether such docks can be sent through the Suez Canal?
§ Commander EYRES-MONSELLThere will be three floating docks capable of taking the "Hood" when the Southampton dock is completed, probably in the autumn of this year, and the two ex-German docks are lengthened, one of which is in hand. These docks could be passed through the Seuz Canal.
