HC Deb 08 May 1906 vol 156 c1171
MR. BOLAND (Kerry, S.)

I beg to ask the Postmaster-General whether he has considered the advisability of moving all the Irish business of the Post Office Savings Bank to headquarters in Dublin; and, if so, when he proposes to give effect to this proposal.

MR. SYDNEY BUXTON

The question of the advisability of transferring the Irish business of the Post Office. Savings Bank to headquarters in Dublin has been considered on several occasions. It is more convenient and economical to keep the Savings Bank accounts at one central institution, and greater facilities are thereby afforded for making or withdrawing deposits at any office in the United Kingdom, than would be possible if the Irish accounts were kept in Dublin.
