HC Deb 13 December 1950 vol 482 cc169-70W
Mr. Keeling

asked the Postmaster-General if he will now state the towns in which later collections will begin early in the New Year; and whether they will be made at all boxes therein.

Mr. Ness Edwards

Local staff consultation is proceeding and for the present it is not possible to give a definite answer to the hon. Member's question, but I hope that many towns will be enjoying the new facilities early in the New Year. Notice of their introduction will be given locally. In London, two collections are to be provided. The first of these will be full; the second in common with the collection to be provided in provincial towns, will be made on a selective basis.
