HC Deb 02 September 1895 vol 36 cc1447-8
* MR. ELLIS GRIFFITH (Anglesey)

I beg to ask the Secretary to the Treasury, as representing the Postmaster General, whether he is aware that the post office accommodation at Holyhead is inadequate and insufficient for the post office business of that town; whether the medical officer for Holyhead has reported to the Government that the post office premises are unfit for the purposes for which they are used; whether he is aware that a suitable site and premises, either freehold or on lease, are available in the centre of the town for the purpose of post office buildings; and, what steps the Government propose to take to provide suitable and commodious post office premises for the town of Holyhead?

* MR. HANBURY

The need for a better post office at Holyhead is admitted, and the postmistress, with whom it rests to provide suitable accommodation, has for some time past been endeavouring to obtain premises. Attention has not been called to the premises referred to as available, but if the owner will make an offer of them it shall be considered.
