§ 32. Sir D. Rentonasked the Secretary of State for Industry if he will give a general direction to the Post Office to introduce a uniform rate for daytime telephone calls, in view of the congestion caused in the afternoon by the present arrangements for cheaper calls at that time.
§ Mr. Gregor MackenzieNo. The management of the tariff structure to even out demand is a matter for the day-to-day management of the Post Office. In any event, I am advised that over the country as a whole traffic in the morning is still slightly higher than in the afternoon.
