§ Lieut.-Colonel FREMANTLEasked the Postmaster-General when a telephone ex- 428W change will be supplied at Bayford, near Hertford; and whether this matter has now been under consideration by the Post Office authorities for many months, to the great inconvenience of the locality?
§ Mr. ILLINGWORTHI regret that I am not yet in a position to say when a telephone exchange can be provided at Bayford. The canvass for subscribers and preparation of estimates has unavoidably occupied a considerable time, but I hope to receive the final estimates shortly and will then arrange precise terms to be quoted to the applicants.
