§ Sir J. Mellorasked the Postmaster-General whether he will take steps to bring to the notice of subscribers their right under the Post Office and Telegraph Act, 1940, to terminate their telephone contracts by notice in writing within one month after the commencement of the Act?

Friend; these would involve individual notification to some 400,000 subscribers. The publicity which my hon. Friend's Question and this answer will receive will possibly serve the purpose he has in mind.
