HC Deb 14 December 1954 vol 535 cc135-6W
Mr. Llewellyn

asked the Assistant Postmaster-General the average period between a saver's application to withdraw more than £3 from the Post Office Savings Bank and its satisfaction.

Mr. Gammans

Generally speaking, a depositor who posts an application to withdraw more than £3 from his Post Office Savings Bank account on Day A receives the authority for payment on Day C or Day D at the latest. If the hon. Member knows of any particular case of difficulty or delay and will supply details, I shall be glad to look into it.
