HC Deb 24 October 1961 vol 646 c76W
99. Sir B. Janner

asked the Postmaster-General how many external extension telephones have been installed during the past two years at a quarterly rental of over £1,000; who are the main users of these extensions; and why an adequate service cannot be given over the main telephone network in such cases.

Miss Pike

The public network could, of course, be used, but external extensions provide direct communication as well as access to the public network.

No external extensions have been installed, during the past two years, at a quarterly rental of over £1,000.
