asked the Civil Lord of the Admiralty what has been the result of his further inquiries regarding H.M.S. "Pandora"; and whether the wreck off the Australian coast has now been identified as that of H.M.S. "Pandora".

It has not yet been possible to establish whether this wreck is the "Pandora". There is no record in the Admiralty of the ship's bell which I referred to in my Answer to the hon. and gallant Member on 25th January. We know the position in which the "Pandora" was wrecked and have asked the Australian finders of the wreck to check the position. I will write to my hon. and gallant Friend as soon as I get any more information.
