PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
WARSHIP NUMBERS IN THE ROYAL NAVY (18 May 2005)
Motion Details
That this House acknowledges that modern warships are much more powerful than their predecessors, but notes the obvious fact that the same vessel, however potent, cannot be in two places at once; deplores statements by the Government in the previous Parliament that numbers of platforms are no longer relevant; and calls for the fitting of Tactical Tomahawk missiles to those Type 45 destroyers which remain to be built.
