HC Deb 06 February 1957 vol 564 c47W
3. Mr. Sydney Irving

asked the Postmaster-General what new projects of submarine cable-laying his Department proposes to undertake now that the trans-Atlantic project is complete.

Mr. K. Thompson

New cables to Jersey, to the Irish Republic and to the Continent are planned. I cannot yet say when further transoceanic cable projects will be undertaken.
