HC Deb 05 July 1926 vol 197 c1638W
Colonel DAY

asked the Postmaster-General if he is aware of the inconvenience caused to depositors in the Post Office Savings Bank owing to the existing arrangements whereby only £1 can be withdrawn on demand, irrespective of the amount standing to the depositor's credit; and will he consider a review of the existing Regulations with a view to enabling the withdrawal of a large proportion of any total deposit?

Sir W. MITCHELL-THOMSON

The Regulations concerning the withdrawal of deposits on demand from a Post Office Savings Bank account are at present under consideration. I am not yet in a position to say whether any extension of the limit will be possible.
