HC Deb 21 December 1888 vol 332 c974
MR. HOWELL (Bethnal Green, N.E.)

asked Mr. Chancellor of the Exchequer, Whether he was aware that serious inconvenience had arisen, and was likely to arise, in consequence of the new Rule of the Savings Bank, which required the whole of the Trustees to sign the form of withdrawal of money, whereas hitherto it had been sufficient if two or three signed; and whether action would be taken, in conjunction with the Post Office authorities, so as to prevent such inconvenience in the future?

THE CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUER (Mr. GOSCHEN) (St. George's, Hanover Square)

, in reply, said, he had no knowledge of the Rule to which the hon. Member referred; but he would not fail to make inquiries at once.
