§ Mr. Ian Lloydasked the Postmaster-General what items of capital equipment, on order for Hampshire telephone exchange and valued at £1,000 and over are more than one month, three months, six months and one year overdue on their contractual dates of delivery; and whether he will specify the names of the firms concerned.
§ Mr. BennThere are four major exchange projects in Hampshire where the contractual completion is at present overdue by more than one month; none is overdue by more than three months. I do not think it would be fair to name the three contractors concerned.
