§ Colonel DAYasked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury the cost that has been incurred during the last 12 months in issuing the 29 leaflets, posters, brochures, etc., drawing attention to the advantages of the telephone system, giving the estimated cost for each leaflet, etc., separately, and the number of each that have been issued?
§ Mr. McNEILLNo separate record of the cost of this service is kept by the Stationery Office, and it would not be possible to give the detailed information desired without a laborious reference to the printers' bills. A very rough estimate, however, based on an examination of a number of the principal items issued shows that about £1,000 was spent on the printing of these documents during the last 12 months. As stated by the Postmaster-General in his reply to the hon. Member on the 12th July, some 4,000,000 copies of the various documents have been issued.
