HC Deb 09 December 1953 vol 521 c241W
101. Mr. Gower

asked the Assistant Postmaster-General if he will increase the allocation of telephone kiosks to rural areas in Wales.

Mr. Gammans

The proportion of our resources allotted to kiosks is already greater in Wales than elsewhere, and we hope to allocate even more for Wales next year. The cost of installation, however, is rising as we deal with more remote kiosks and, for this reason, I doubt whether we shall be able to provide a greater number of new kiosks next year.
