§ Mr. LATHANasked the Postmaster-General if he is aware that complaints are frequently made of the inadequacy of the public postal facilities at Palmers Green, which are said to be practically the same to-day as they were 17 years ago, all public business having to be transacted in two or three comparatively small shops; whether it has been brought to his notice that recently queues of people awaiting attention extended to the public footpaths; and whether he will cause inquiries to be made with a view to the provision of more adequate facilities for this growing suburb with a present population of approximately 47,000 people?
§ Mr. LEES-SMITHThe provision of a Crown office at Palmers Green has been approved, and every effort is being made to secure the necessary accommodation.
