asked the Minister for Posts and Telegraphs the number on new telephones installed in County Wexford during each of the years 1961, 1962 and 1963, and the number proposed to be installed during 1964.
The numbers were 300, 185 and 195 respectively. It is hoped to instal about 200 this year.
Is that the best the Minister can go, having regard to the fact that there were 300 installations in 1961?
We can always try to do better, of course, and that is the idea behind the endeavour of the Department of Posts and Telegraphs.
