§ Mr. BennFaults are repaired as quickly as possible and most are cleared on the day they are reported. I cannot agree to allow rebates as a general rule, but telephone managers have discretion to make allowances in individual cases of special difficulty. I shall be glad to look into any particular case that the hon. Member may have in mind.
