HC Deb 13 March 1967 vol 743 cc21-2W
Mr. Pardoe

asked the Postmaster-General what plans he has to introduce a keyboard computer service for telephone subscribers.

Mr. Edward Short

The Datel 300 Service, to be introduced late this year, will provide facilities for sending data from punched cards (and later punched paper tape) from an ordinary telephone, and will include a simple keyboard for numerical data. The need for further data transmission services is being kept under close review.
