HC Deb 07 April 1954 vol 526 c41W
76. Mr. Channon

asked the Assistant Postmaster-General whether he will arrange for the removal of the derelict telegraph poles which disfigure the countryside.

Mr. Gammans

We are making steady progress with the recovery of disused overhead plant, but the provision of service for new subscribers must for some time to come remain the first charge on our labour force.
