HC Deb 18 February 1935 vol 298 cc14-5
26. Mr. BANFIELD (for Mr. GROVES)

asked the Postmaster-General whether his attention has been called to the overtures made by the West Ham County Borough to his Department for the provision of a sub post office in that portion of Stratford known as the Carpenter's Estate; whether he is aware that many aged people are at present compelled to cross the Stratford High Street in order to cash their pension vouchers; and, in view of the risk to life and limb thereby entailed, will be give personal attention to the matter and investigate the reasons actuating his Department's refusal of West Ham's appeal?

Sir K. WOOD

I will certainly investigate this matter as the hon. Member requests, and let him know the result of my inquiries.
