HC Deb 15 February 1955 vol 537 cc45-6W
Dr. Broughton

asked the Assistant Postmaster-General the estimated cost of the extension to the Morleytelephone exchange; whether the work has started; and how many additional telephones will become available when the extension is completed.

Mr. Gammans

The estimated cost of the additional equipment is £1,750. Preparatory work is in hand and installation will start in April. There are at present 82 applications for telephones which are held up for lack of exchange equipment, and these will be met before the middle of the year.
