HC Deb 27 April 1928 vol 216 cc1223-4W
Mr. DAY

asked the Postmaster-General whether any further extensions of the Transatlantic telephone service in Canada or America are contemplated; and whether any negotiations are at present taking place with the American telephone authorities with a view to reducing the fees for this service?

Sir W. MITCHELL-THOMSON

Further extensions of the Transatlantic telephone service in Canada are contemplated. The service is already available to all parts of the United States. The charges in this service were substantially reduced as recently as the 4th March, and no further reduction is contemplated at present.
