HC Deb 16 February 1949 vol 461 c168W
57. Mr. J. Morrison

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Admiralty how many cases of suspected sabotage have been reported in dockyards or aboard ship during the past six months.

Mr. W. Edwards

In the past six months there have been nine cases in which there is an element of suspicion that damage has been wilful. No evidence has come to light to indicate that the motive for any wilful damage has been other than personal and petty or that there is any general connection between the various cases.
