One panelist recalls being allowed to photograph the dockyard during a visit aboard Queen Elizabeth, provided the photographs were not published for two weeks. The stated reason was that ships would move during that interval, reducing the value of the images as information about their current locations. Material considered sensitive was excluded from photography altogether. This is an account of that visit's arrangements, with separate treatment for temporary information about ship movements and objects that should not be photographed.
