MR. LONSDALE
( Armagh, Mid.)
I beg to ask the Secretary to the Admiralty when it is intended to lay down the additional battleship of the "Dreadnought" type which was held in abeyance pending the result of the Hague Conference.
THE CIVIL LORD OF THE ADMIRALTY
(Mr. LAMBERT, Devon, South Molton)
I have nothing to add to the statement made by the Secretary to the Admiralty on Vote 8.
MR. BYLES
(Salford, N.)
In view of the proposal put forward by Sir E. Fry at the Hague Conference, cannot the construction of this "Dreadnought" be frankly abandoned?
MR. LAMBERT
I can only repeat the Answer I have given.
