HC Deb 09 July 1952 vol 503 c95W
77. Brigadier Medlicott

asked the Assistant Postmaster-General for what purposes the £6 million allotted in the financial memorandum for postal and telegraph services is to be expended.

Mr. Gammans

About half the amount is required for the development of the telegraph system and Post Office wireless stations. The balance will be spent on sites and building extension work, on heating and lighting plant and lifts, and on other miscellaneous requirements of the postal and telegraph services.
