HC Deb 28 February 1895 vol 31 c27
MR. HARRY S. FOSTER (Suffolk, Lowestoft)

I beg to ask the Postmaster General, whether he is aware that the Associatiation of Municipal Corporations, representing 238 corporate towns in England and Wales, passed a resolution on the 21st instant, urging the municipalities to request their representatives in Parliament to support the Motion for the Appointment of a Select Committee of this House on the subject of Telephones; and, whether he will give consideration to this memorial in coming to a decision in the matter?

MR. ARNOLD MORLEY

So far as I am aware, no copy has been received by me at the Post Office. I understand, however, that a resolution to the effect stated has been passed by the Council of the Association, but that it by no means represents the views of all the municipalities in England and Wales.
