HC Deb 30 November 1936 vol 318 c829
34. Mr. DAY

asked the Postmaster-General what steps he proposes to take to remedy the difficulty experienced by subscribers at present in obtaining answers from telephone exchanges (especially in the country areas) after 10 o'clock in the evening; and whether he will give particulars of any steps that have been recently taken to strengthen this service?

Major TRYON

I would refer the hon. Member to the answer I gave him on the 9th instant.

Mr. DAY

Does it apply specially to the country areas?

Major TRYON

If the hon. Member will read the answer I gave him, he will see how it applies.
