HC Deb 01 July 1975 vol 894 c356W
Mr. Greville Janner

asked the Secretary of State for Industry if he will give a general direction to the Post Office to cease its current practice of charging double for local calls from call boxes put through the operator in cases where a line is defective.

Mr. Gregor Mackenzie

No. I do not regard this subject as appropriate for a general directive.
