HC Deb 13 December 1922 vol 159 c2964W
Mr. MIDDLETON

asked the Postmaster-General whether he is aware that the combined populations of New Milton, Hordel, Wootton Ashley, Barton-on-Sea, and Downton, which are in reality one place, is in excess of the population of the town in which the head office of that area is situated; and whether, in view of the changes which have been necessary in the administration of the New Milton post office and in view of the importance of the district, which justifies a more efficient local administration, he will consider the advisability of creating a salared sub-office in that town?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

I am having inquiry made and will communicate the result to the hon. Member.
