HC Deb 31 July 1957 vol 574 cc181-2W
18. Mr. Ross

asked the Postmaster-General if he will give his estimate of the increased value, as a result of increased charges, of all paid and unpaid services rendered by his Department for other Government Departments.

Mr. Marples

Government Departments are billed for telephones like any other customer and the Post Office keeps no central records from which it could estimate the effect on them. In a full year the Post Office would expect to gain about £1.2 million under Posts and £10,000 under Telegraphs.
