§ Mr. LYONSasked the Postmaster-General if any private telephone lines are now in operation between Leicester and London; and what is the cost of such a private line?
573W
§ Major TRYONThere are at present no private London-Leicester telephone lines in operation. The rental of such a line at the standard rate would be £720 a year; but in view of the requirements of the public service there would at present be some difficulty in sparing a line for private use.
