Disadvantages:

The necessity of obtaining assurance from France, Italy, Germany, Holland and Russia that their submarines would not exercise within a specified distance from the coast of Spain.

The uncertainty whether certain foreign powers would energetically implement their undertakings.

Spanish Government submarines would be exposed to attack.

All British men of war would be exposed to submarine attack in the vicinity of coast of Spain and perhaps further afield.

Unrestricted attacks on submarines would amount to direct intervention as we should be doing for Spanish Government what they cannot do for themselves.

The employment of aircraft off Spanish coast might lead to reprisals and further intervening.

Prolonged watch keeping by asdic personnel rapidly reduces their efficiency.
