§ Mr. TOUCHEasked the Postmaster-General if he is aware that the Post Office authorities decline to comply with a request for redirection of correspondence addressed to Whitehall Court, S.W., presumably in terms of the provision that the Post Office does not undertake to redirect correspondence to clubs, hotels, boardinghouses, or lodgings; and will he say in which of these categories the Post Office places letters addressed to a tenant who had rented an unfurnished flat at Whitehall Court for a term of years?
§ Mr. HERBERT SAMUELLetters addressed to No. 4, Whitehall Court, the exact address to which I understand the hon. Member's question has reference, are delivered in bulk to the hall porter, who is willing to undertake redirection for tenants who remove. In these circumstances it is not the practice of the Post Office itself to undertake redirection. In my opinion an unfurnished flat at Whitehall Court is a "lodging."
