§ Mr. McKayasked the Postmaster General if he has now considered the representations from the Wallsend 18W Borough Council and the hon. Member for Wallsend, asking for hand rails to be erected on the steps of the entrance of the post office in Station Road, Wallsend; if he will give an estimate of the cost involved; and, in view of the dangers to old-age pensioners, if he will have the matter reconsidered.
Dr. HillI am having this looked into again locally. I can assure the hon. Member that whatever is reasonably required of the Post Office will be provided. The cost of hand rails would be about £6.
