HC Deb 05 December 1968 vol 774 c545W
Mr. Henry Clark

asked the Postmaster-General what steps have been taken in the last 12 months, and what plans have been made, to remove unsightly overhead telegraph wires and telegraph poles from the town; and areas of natural beauty in Northern Ireland.

Mr. Stonehouse

The replacement of 1.7 miles of overhead plant near Bailin-toy at a cost of £7,500 is in progress and should be completed by June, 1969. We have no plans for any further replacement at present.
