HC Deb 28 October 1971 vol 823 c480W
Mr. Golding

asked the Minister of Posts and Telecommunications whether he will issue a general direction to the Post Office to increase its investment programme for the forthcoming five years.

Mr. Chataway

A general direction would not be appropriate. I keep the Post Office investment programme under continuous review in accordance with my powers under Section 11(8) of the Post Office Act, 1969.
