HC Deb 28 June 1939 vol 349 cc440-1W
Mr. Cocks

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Admiralty whether he is aware that the United States of America Navy Department has placed at the disposal of the French Admiralty plans of diving bells similar to the type employed for the rescue of sailors from the "Squalus"; that the French Government intends to construct five of these diving bells and to fit their submarines for the purpose of using them; and whether he can now say whether the Admiralty has made any decision in the matter?
