§ Mr. WILKIEasked the Postmaster-General whether, in view of the continued unemployment and the advantage that would accrue to the public service, he will now cause to be carried out the contemplated work of placing underground the telegraph wires to Dundee and the North of Scotland?
§ Mr. BUXTONAs my hon. friend is aware, the amount of money which can be expended on underground work in each year is limited by financial and other considerations, and gives equal employment wherever it is expended. As he is also aware, the present year's expenditure is to be devoted to the continuation or completion of certain lines which have already been begun.
