HC Deb 16 July 1914 vol 64 c2099
40. Mr. HANCOCK

asked the Postmaster-General whether he has given instructions for a telephone call office to be provided at the Midland Railway station, Ambergate; and why such office has not yet been provided?

Mr. HOBHOUSE

No instructions have yet been given for the provision of a public telephone call-box at Ambergate Railway Station, but inquiry is being made to ascertain whether the facility is justified on financial grounds. As pointed out in my answer to the hon. Member on the 15th April last, this matter had to await the settlement of an agreement with the Midland Railway Company as to the terms applicable to such installations on their property.
