HC Deb 01 March 1911 vol 22 cc518-9W
Mr. RICHARD LAMBERT

asked the Postmaster-General how many villages or hamlets of more than 150 inhabitants in England, Scotland, Ireland, and Wales, respectively, are two miles or more from a post office at which there is a postmaster in charge.

Mr. HERBERT SAMUEL

The information asked for is not available, and could only be obtained at an expenditure of money and labour which would not, La my opinion, be justified. If the hon. Member will be so good as to give me the names of any villages which he thinks are not provided by the post office with adequate facilities, I shall be happy to make inquiries and acquaint him with their result.
