HC Deb 14 October 1912 vol 42 c804W
Mr. PETO

asked the Postmaster-General whether, in compiling the new Telephone Directory, he will arrange that tenants of apartments in flats which have a private internal exchange, and consequently share one Or more numbers in common, shall be permitted to have their names entered in the directory for an annual fee of not more than 5s.

Mr. HERBERT SAMUEL

The question raised by the hon. Member cannot be considered as affecting only the occupants of flats. Other cases would have to be taken into account. I shall be glad to give careful consideration to the matter when the rates for telephone service are being revised on the termination of the present arbitration proceedings.
