HC Deb 30 June 1948 vol 452 cc204-5W
62. Mr. Stokes

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs why the buildings of the torpedo factory at Eckenforde are now being demolished in view of their urgent need for peace-time purposes; and whether he will now confirm that instructions have been given countermanding the demolition order.

Mr. Bevin

No order has been given for the demolition of the surface buildings of the torpedo experimental and testing station at Eckenforde. An Anglo-German working party has been considering to what use certain of these buildings might be put. Their report is still being considered.
