§ Sir H. JACKSONasked the Postmaster-General whether he is aware of the lack of post office facilities at Wands-worth, as illustrated by an instance last week when a, telegram addressed Wands-worth Borough Council, Wandsworth, S.W.18, received by the General Poet Office, King Edward Street, E.G., at 8.8. p.m. on Thursday, 18th June, was not delivered at the Wandsworth Council's offices until after midday on Saturday, 20th June, nearly 48 hours after its arrival in the City; and if he will take action with a view to improving the existing facilities in that district?

§ Viscount WOLMERI am not aware that the post office facilities at Wands-worth are insufficient for public requirements, but in any case this question can possess no bearing upon the incident referred to by the hon. Member. If any telegram were delayed as stated there must have been some accident or irregularity in treatment, and I shall be glad to investigate the matter if the hon. Member will let me have the delivered copy and envelope.
