‹ Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Telephone Services. Tenpenny coins in public telephone boxes
Summary
Molloy said inserting many fivepenny coins was inconvenient and caused unnecessary wear, and asked whether boxes could accept tenpenny coins. The Minister said the proposal was under consideration.
Might I ask the Minister if he has yet considered adjusting the coin boxes in public telephone booths to accept a tenpenny piece, as the necessity to insert large numbers of fivepenny pieces is a grave inconvenience to the public and is causing unnecessary over-use of the machinery?
