HC Deb 04 March 1953 vol 512 cc39-40W
75. Mr. Chapman

asked the Assistant Postmaster-General when he will provide a public telephone call-box in the Thelbridge Road area of the Greenlands Estate, Birmingham 31.

Mr. Gammans

We plan to provide a kiosk on this estate next year as soon as new cables are laid. In the meantime I regret the residents will have to manage with the kiosk at Longbridge Lane, which is about half-a-mile away.

76. Mr. Chapman

asked the Assistant Postmaster-General when he will provide a public telephone call-box on the Bangham Pit Estate, Birmingham 31.

Mr. Gammans

I regret that it is not possible to provide a kiosk at present because there are no spare wires and the new cables which are being laid will not be ready until next year.
