§ 29. Mr. Charles R. Morrisasked the Minister of Posts and Telecommunications when the Post Office Corporation hopes to complete its review of postal mechanisation.
§ Sir J. EdenThis is primarily a matter for the Post Office which, I understand has decided to continue with a programme of mechanisation.
§ Mr. MorrisI accept that this is primarily a matter for the Post Office Corporation, but will not the Minister agree that there has been lethargy in proceeding with the postal mechanisation programme, and will he use his influence with the Post Office Corporation to expedite the mechanisation of the postal system?
§ Sir J. EdenI do not find any lethargy on the part of the Post Office Corporation; rather do I find a desire to promote the maximum possible efficiency in the Post Office commensurate with good management of its resources.
