HC Deb 08 February 1939 vol 343 c970W
Lieut.-Commander Fletcher

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Admiralty how many former members of the Board of Admiralty have joined the board of the British Power Boat Company and what Government contracts the British Power Boat Company at present enjoys?

Mr. Shakespeare

One former member of the Board of Admiralty, now retired, has joined the board of the British Power Boat Company, Limited. Together with other leading firms in the motor boat industry this company holds several Government contracts for the construction and repair of motor craft, but it would not be in the public interest to specify what these contracts are.
