HC Deb 27 February 1952 vol 496 c1130
36. Sir Edward Keeling

asked the Assistant Postmaster-General what proof of identity is now required for the withdrawal of money from the Post Office Savings Bank.

Mr. Gammans

No special evidence of identity is now required for the withdrawal of money from the Post Office Savings Bank. Where a counter clerk notices a difference between the signature on the withdrawal form and that in the book, or has any reason to suppose that an attempt at fraud is being made, he will, as always, be entitled to ask for some proof of identity.

Sir E. Keeling

Good.
