Admiralty to let Australia choose naval defence terms
Lord Tweedmouth announced after talks with Australasian delegates that Australia may retain the subsidy or repeal the naval defence agreement with Great Britain. The Admiralty favors unifying the Australian Indian and China squadrons and allowing Australia to set its own defence system if desired. New Zealand may continue its subsidy or develop submarines with available facilities. Deakin said he would move Parliament to terminate the agreement, with subsidy funds redirected to harbour and coast security.
