§ Mr. EGANasked the Postmaster-General if, in consideration of the inconvenience to business caused by irregular and delayed deliveries in the Wirral area, he will consider the advisability of restoring the Birkenhead General Post Office to the 1924 position of service?
§ Mr. LEES-SMITHThe change in status of the Birkenhead Post Office in 1926 did not affect the postal deliveries in the Wirral area. I have no information that the concentration in 1928 of the mail work on Liverpool, made largely with a view to providing improved communications, has led to any deterioration in the delivery arrangements. If the hon. Member has any recent specific cases of inconvenience in mind, I shall be pleased to investigate them if he will let me have particulars.
