Malta Torpedo And Destroyer Flotilla

MR. FELL (Great Yarmouth)
I beg to ask the Secretary to the Admiralty what is the present strength of the torpedo and destroyer flotilla at Malta; and have steps been taken to make up the losses that have occurred in the Mediterranean recently.

MR. EDMUND ROBERTSON
Seven first-class torpedo boats and eleven destroyers. The reply to the second part of the Question is in the negative.
