HC Deb 03 February 1954 vol 523 c46W
91. Brigadier Clarke

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty on what day or days in 1954 it is proposed to hold Navy Day or days in each of Her Majesty's dockyards.

Mr. J. P. L. Thomas

Navy Days at the home ports are being planned as follows:

Portsmouth and Chatham

17th April and 31st July.

Devonport

5th June and 31st July.

In each case the Navy Days will cover three days from the commencing dates I have given, and cover Easter, Whitsun, and August Bank Holiday week-ends respectively. I should make clear that these Navy Days are not Navy Weeks.
