A wider imperial fleet depends on Dominion governments understanding the roles and costs they would assume. Regular briefings could encourage naval investment in the same way that Army briefings supported the growth of imperial land forces. This would take time and would not win votes or arguments immediately. Repeated explanations could nevertheless establish the language in which supporters and opponents debated naval policy. The projected result is more ships across the Empire without a comparable increase in Britain's own naval spending.
