§ Captain BAGOTasked the Postmaster-General whether he will reconsider the decision recently made by which the public are no longer able to obtain money orders, licences, and savings bank accounts at Beetham sub-post office in the Carnforth district; and whether he is aware that residents in and near the village who have had such facilities for many years past are much dissatisfied?
§ Mr. HERBERT SAMUELI have carefully considered representations made to me on this subject, and I regret that, in view of the small number of transactions of the nature specified, I should not be justified in sanctioning the resumption of money order and savings bank business and the issue of licences at the post office at Beetham, Carnforth.
