HC Deb 24 October 1945 vol 414 cc2166-7W
Mr. Gallacher

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty if he will make a statement at an early date on the future of the naval base at Rosyth and the naval repair factory at Donibristle.

Mr. Alexander

The future of Rosyth and the Aircraft Repair Yard at Donibristle is bound up with the strength, composition and disposition of the ultimate post-war Fleet. All these inter-related problems are under examination but I do not expect that any conclusion will be reached for some time to come.
