§ Mr. Kellyasked the First Lord of the Admiralty whether any repair work for the Navy is being given to the dockyards at Haulbowline; and whether it is intended to give other repair work to the western yards?
Mr. CooperNo repair work for the Royal Navy is being given to the dockyard at Haulbowline, which was taken over by the Eire authorities in 1923. I am not clear what the hon. Member means by the term "western yards." Repair work for the Navy will continue to be carried out in the Royal Dockyards at Portsmouth, Devonport, Chatham, and Sheerness.
