87. Mr. W. JENKINS (Neath)asked the Postmaster-General whether, in view of the large number of depositors, he will re-introduce the system of giving an official acknowledgment for each deposit, however small?

This policy has been fully justified by results, and in view of the cost of acknowledging separately many million deposits, my right hon. Friend is not prepared to revert to the former practice.
