HC Deb 16 February 1967 vol 741 c161W
Sir J. Langford-Holt

asked the Lord President of the Council whether he will instal an automatic branch exchange system of telephones in the Palace of Westminster enabling local calls only to be dialled direct to replace the time consuming system used at present which has remained unaltered for 25 years.

Mr. Crossman

It is planned to instal an automatic dialling system in the House of Commons when space becomes available. The whole matter is at present under consideration.
