§ Mr. Ridleyasked the Postmaster-General what arrangement exists for the telephonic transmission of journalistic despatches from Great Britain to Finland?
§ Captain WaterhouseA telephone service for Press messages to Finland was made available on the 28th October, but I understand that no use has so far been made of it by journalists.
§ Mr. Ridleyasked the Postmaster-General whether, having regard to the heavy pressure on the London and Copenhagen radio-telephone service, he will consider the provision of direct services between London and other neutral countries, particularly Norway and Sweden?
§ Captain WaterhouseMy right hon. Friend is fully aware of the desirability of providing adequate telephone facilities for the transmission of Press messages to the Scandinavian countries, and the possibility of supplementing the present radio-telephone service via Copenhagen is being explored.
