26. Mr. LOVAT-FRASER

asked the Postmaster-General what is the number of people whose services will be unnecessary as the result of the general establishment of the dialling system?

It is anticipated that it will be possible to absorb in other exchanges the staff rendered redundant as the result of the conversion of manual exchanges to automatic working.
