§ 90. Mr. Michael Alisonasked the Postmaster-General why there is a shortage of telephone cables and exchange equipment in the Wetherby area; and when new subscribers in this area may expect to have telephones installed.
§ Mr. Joseph SlaterThe exchange at Wetherby is exhausted due to the rapid development of the area. The shortage of cables has been remedied and an equipment extension is in hand. I hope 69W this will be completed by the end of the year and that we shall then be able to begin to clear the waiting list.
