§ Sir B. Neven-Spenceasked the Postmaster-General how many rural telephone kiosks have been installed in Shetland since the end of the war; how many are in course of being installed; how many it is proposed to instal during 1948; and how many will still be on the waiting list at the end of that year.
§ Mr. Wilfred PalingFour telephone kiosks and two call offices have been installed in Shetland since the end of the war. Twelve kiosks and two call offices are in course of construction. There remain 80 kiosks still to be installed. These involve extensive overhead line construction, and I regret that I am unable at present to estimate how many will be completed during 1948.
