HC Deb 12 July 1915 vol 73 c663W
Mr. TOOTILL

asked the Pastmaster General when the new post office at Bolton will be opened for the transaction of business; and whether the postal, telephone, and telegraph business will commence simultaneously?

Mr. HERBERT SAMUEL

The new building may be completed about the beginning of 1916. The postal and telegraph business will probably be moved to it at one and the same time, but, in view of the necessity for economy, it is proposed to defer the transfer of the telephones, which will involve considerable expense.
