asked the Assistant Postmaster-General whether he will take steps to provide a post office, with telephone and call box, in the village of Briantspuddle, Dorset.

A sub-post office and telephone will be provided at Briantspuddle as soon as a suitable candidate is forthcoming, but hitherto, though every effort has been made, it has not been possible to find one, A telephone kiosk will in any case be erected as soon as the necessary plant can be made available.
