HC Deb 24 April 1939 vol 346 cc775-6
43. Mr. Viant

asked the Postmaster-General whether his attention has been directed to the position of the site selected for the erection of the new telephone exchange at Devizes; is he aware that two gasometers are in close proximity, also that gas mains would run on three sides of the exchange; and, in view of the danger likely to arise from such conditions, will he reconsider the position with a view to selecting a more suitable site?

Sir W. Womersley

I am looking into this matter and will communicate with the hon. Member as soon as my inquiries are completed.
