HC Deb 26 March 1952 vol 498 cc402-3
58. Mr. Hobson

asked the Assistant Postmaster-General what is the amount of capital investment for the year 1952–53 allocated to his Department.

Mr. Gammans

I would refer the hon. Member to the reply given yesterday by my right hon. Friend the Chancellor of the Exchequer to the hon. Member for Kidderminster (Mr. Nabarro) which applies equally to the Post Office.

Mr. Hobson

Does the hon. Gentleman appreciate that his reply means that there will be a growing list of people waiting for telephones?
