Which dominion would receive a treaty battleship

If the dominions could each receive one British treaty capital ship, who would get them?

Australia would claim the first and probably seek both; New Zealand could receive the second, which would likely operate mainly from Australia.

The proposal allocates additional British treaty capital ships to the dominions. From a strategic perspective, Australia has the resources, bases, and regional need to claim the first ship and would probably try to obtain both. New Zealand is the next plausible recipient. A New Zealand-owned vessel would likely operate largely from Australia because that is where the supporting naval concentration would be strongest, although the United States would resist the broader arrangement.
