HC Deb 12 May 1922 vol 153 cc2539-40W
Mr. HOLMES

asked the Postmaster-General whether his attention has been called to the inconvenience and delay caused by closing the post office at Creswell, Derbyshire, on Wednesday afternoons and delivering telegrams from Whitwell, a neighbouring village, and by closing the post office at Whitwell on Thursday afternoons and delivering telegrams from Creswell; and whether he could, without depriving the local post office staff of their half-holiday and without much additional expense, arrange for telegrams to be received and delivered at Creswell on Wednesday afternoons and at Whitwell on Thursday afternoons?

Mr. KELLAWAY

I am having inquiry made in the matter, and will communicate with the hon. Member as soon as possible.
