asked the Postmaster General how many persons in the Denbigh and Llanrwst areas respectively have applied for and still wait to receive telephones for agricultural, trading or private premises respectively; and what is the further delay anticipated in supplying them.

The particulars desired are as follow:

Exchange		Applications outstanding
		Agricitural	Business	Residential
Denbigh	…	20	52	50
Llanrwst	…	5	22	12

I cannot say when it will be possible to clear all the outstanding applications, but I hope that at least half of them will be met during the early part of next year.
