a ) Should a subscriber’s telephone be removed at the subscriber’s request to another address or position within the same network, he shall pay the cost of labour involved in effecting the removal. In cases where the rental is not increased the subscriber shall, in addition, pay the value of the material used in wiring the premises (reckoned from the first pole outside the subscriber’s premises), unless the net value of material recovered from the former premises, after deducting labour cost of recovery, equals or exceeds the value of the new material required; but if the net value of the recovered material is less than the value of the new material used, the subscriber shall pay, in addition to labour cost of removal, the difference between the value of the old and new material: Provided that, where in such cases the block distribution system is in use, the cost shall be Ten shillings, plus the cost of refitting the instruments. In cases where the rental is increased consequent upon the removal, the charge shall be the actual cost of labour required in wiring the premises, and the cost of refitting the telephone apparatus.
