HC Deb 31 March 1930 vol 237 c891
53. Mr. HALL-CAINE

asked the Post-master-General the cause of the delay in erecting more public telephone booths in the streets of Liverpool?

The POSTMASTER-GENERAL (Mr. Lees-Smith)

The delay in the installation of public telephone kiosks at Liverpool is due to the difficulty of obtaining consents for sites from the Corporation. Out of nearly 70 recent applications made for sites, only 11 consents have been received. I hope that further negotiations will prove more fruitful.
