HC Deb 06 June 1945 vol 411 cc892-3W
Mr. Storey

asked the Postmaster-General if he can now see his way to publish military telephone numbers in the telephone directories on a wider scale than at present.

Major Anstruther-Gray

I am pleased to state that my right hon. and gallant Friend has now been able to arrange with the Secretary of State for War for a relaxation of the restrictions on the publication of military telephone numbers which will go a long way to restore pre-war practice in this respect. Pending reprint of the telephone directories, telephone operators will disclose to callers, on request, the telephone numbers of any military establishment on which the restriction has been lifted.
