HC Deb 28 November 1912 vol 44 c1507W
Colonel LOCKWOOD

asked the Postmaster-General when the telephonic facilities promised to rural districts will be extended to the district round Dunmow, such as Takeley?

Mr. HERBERT SAMUEL

I regret that I am unable at present to provide further rural party lines as the funds placed by the Treasury at my disposal for that purpose are exhausted. I have, however, applied for additional funds, and if they are granted no time will be lost in carrying out any works in the Dunmow district which may be justified by the support obtained.
