Captain BENNasked the First Lord of the Admiralty whether, in disposing of vessels at Rosyth for commercial or other purposes, the Admiralty can make it a condition of the sale that alterations or reconditioning of the said vessels shall be effected in British shipyards?
Mr. DAVIDSONI assume that the question refers to the "breaking up" of the vessels which are being placed on the Sale List, and the hon. and gallant Member may rest assured that these will be sold to British firms only.
