§ 26. Mr. J. Robertsonasked the Postmaster-General what was the total value of orders for telephonic equipment placed in Scotland by the Post Office in each of the last five years; and what proportion this represented of total orders placed in each of those years.
§ Mr. MawbyI regret that we cannot readily provide the information for each of the five years. Over the period, the value of orders for this equipment placed in Scotland increased from £1½ million, or just over 1 per cent of all such orders, in 1958–59 to £1½ million, or nearly 1½per cent. of the total, in 1962–63.
