§ 51. Lord Balnielasked the Postmaster-General the number of public telephone kiosks that have been provided by his Department in Welwyn Garden City since January, 1949.
§ Mr. GammansSeven.
§ 53. Mr. Hurdasked the Postmaster-General if he is aware that the Newbury Rural District Council asked for 19 telephone kiosks to be provided in the district and so far provision has been made for six; and when he expects to be able to provide the others.
§ Mr. GammansOur records do not agree with my hon. Friend's figures. Since 1950, when the present arrangements for providing rural kiosks were introduced, we have had six applications for the Newbury district from the Berkshire Rural District Councils' Association, five of which have been met. The sixth, which was put forward in 1950, could not be provided at the time and has not been asked for since.
