HC Deb 27 November 1906 vol 165 c1427
MR. BRIGG (Yorkshire, W.R., Keighley)

I beg to ask the Postmaster-General if, in deference to the wishes of some of the residents in the locality, he will withdraw his sanction to the continuance of the sub-post office at Utley, near Keighley, being conducted on licensed premises.

THE POSTMASTER-GENERAL (Mr. SYDNEY BUXTON, Tower Hamlets, Poplar)

The office has been in the hands of the present sub-postmaster for more than six years. It is well managed and no complaints have been received from the public; I do not, therefore, see any sufficient reason at present for disturbing the arrangement. The liquor sold is not consumed on the premises.

MR. LEIF JONES (Westmoreland, Appleby)

When may the House expect the Return showing the number of post offices on licensed premises?

MR. SYDNEY BUXTON

I will make inquiry.
