HC Deb 07 November 1968 vol 772 c152W
Mr. Arthur Lewis

asked the Postmaster-General if he will state the cost to date in actual terms and on a normal business charge Post Office tariff basis, of his Department sending out rectifications informing people and organisations of the incorrect printing of telephone numbers of a number of telephone subscribers in various telephone directories; and what he estimates the final costs for this will be.

Mr. Stonehouse

These notifications are supplied to a customer to use as he wishes: we do not know how many he sends out. I am sorry that full costs are not available and could only be obtained by special inquiry throughout the country. I will gladly look into any particular incident my hon. Friend may have in mind.
