§ 55. Mr. J. B. Hyndasked the Postmaster-General whether he is aware that business representatives and others in 140W Kimcote, near Rugby, have been informed by his Department that they have no hopes of telephone facilities before 1957; and whether he will expedite the extension of facilities in this area.
§ Mr. GammansYes. There are at present eight people waiting for telephones in the Kimcote area because of a shortage of wires in the local cable. Although we have planned a new cable, I regret that it will not be ready for service until about the middle of 1957.
