HC Deb 15 July 1949 vol 467 cc39-40W
Mr. G. Roberts

asked the Postmaster General what degree of priority is extended to applications from district and area superintendents of churches and religious organisations for telephones.

Mr. Wilfred Paling

No specific grade of priority is allotted to applications for telephone service from district and area superintendents of churches and religious organisations, but telephone managers are authorised to deal specially, within their discretion, with exceptional cases. If my hon. Friend would let me know of any such case where difficulty has arisen, I will be glad to look into the matter.
