Aust Catalinas to Netherlands

Hi Hanno, In the book Catalina, Neptune and Orion in Australian Service by Stewart Wilson it is noted that five or six ex RAAF Catalinas, all model PBY5As, were "Presented to Netherlands Govt 1953, scrapped 1956"

How long did the Netherlands keep Catalinas in service? Were the ex Australian aircraft used for military service, civilian use or just for spare parts?

Cheers
Rod
