HC Deb 24 February 1960 vol 618 c46W
51. Mr. Brewis

asked the Postmaster-General whether he will give priority for the installation of telephones for firefighting purposes to applications from foresters or contractors approved by the Scottish Woodland Owners' Association.

Mr. Bevins

Yes. I think my hon. Friend has in mind an application from one of his constituents. Owing to a misunderstanding it was not at first appreciated that the telephone was required for fire emergency purposes. Thanks to the co-operation of a nearby subscriber, a shared line will be installed by the middle of next month.
