§ SIR. J. LUBBOCKI beg to ask the Secretary to the Treasury, as representing the Postmaster-General, whether it is the case that a substantial portion of the Lombard Street Post Office will no longer be available for postal purposes after midsummer next; and, if so, whether arrangements have been made to ensure that postal facilities hitherto existing in Lombard Street shall not be interfered with in consequence of insufficient space?
§ MR. HANBURYThe house, No. 10, Lombard Street, now forming part of the Lombard Street Branch Post Office, having been acquired by an insurance company, will not be available for post office purposes after midsummer next, when the present lease expires. Arrangements are under consideration which will, it is hoped, materially diminish the inconvenience arising from the reduction of space.
