16. Mrs. Butlerasked the Postmaster-General what action he is taking to improve the Bowes Park telephone service, in view of the difficulties which are being caused to business, professional and other subscribers in the exchange area.
§ Mr. BevinsI am sorry about these difficulties, which are partly due to the rapid increase in traffic during recent months. Extra equipment has now been brought into service and this should improve the service. I will, however, keep the position under review.
