asked the First Lord of the Admiralty the naval units at present maintained on the China station; and comparable figures for the corresponding date 12 months ago?

I would refer the hon. Member to the relevant issues of the Navy List, copies of which are in the Library.

Are the auxiliary ships on this station also shown in that list?

Yes, Sir.

Does the list in the Library indicate the British members of the naval units who have been killed by Japanese aggressors out there?
