§ Mr. Stokesasked the First Lord of the Admiralty whether he will make known, 47W either in public or Secret Session, to Members of this House, the losses sustained by the Mercantile Marine during the month of July?
Mr. AlexanderAs regards publication of the figures, I would refer my hon. Friend to the statement made on 15th July when the last monthly figures were issued. I will bear in mind his alternative suggestion that the figures should be given in Secret Session should any occasion arise in future when the House is debating matters of this kind in secret.
