We cannot support shipbuilding industry on RN/RFA requirements alone unless we are to rebuild the Grande Fleet. How would we successfully entice merchant owners to build in them?

(Perhaps some other bread and butter work - why not housing built on the block principle? Grand Designs rather than Grand Fleet).
