§ 30. Mr. BURNETTasked the Postmaster-General if he is in a position to state the amount of annual saving which has resulted from the closing of Wood-side, Aberdeen, as a delivery sub-post office in May, 1929?
§ Sir K. WOODThe change referred to by my hon. Friend, whilst effecting no actual saving, enabled the Post Office 1468 to give a better service by an earlier first delivery in many parts of the area, an earlier delivery of the English night mail, and a third delivery advanced by over one hour.
§ Mr. BURNETTIs the right hon. Gentleman aware of the inconvenience caused to business firms in dealing with their London correspondence?
§ Sir K. WOODNo, Sir; I do not think that my hon. Friend could have heard my reply.
