HC Deb 13 November 1957 vol 577 cc54-5W
Mr. Biggs-Davison

asked the Postmaster-General what economies have been achieved in the running of the Post Office during the last convenient period.

Mr. K. Thompson

In 1956–57 nearly £3 million of new economies were achieved. As my right hon. Friend announced in the House last July, we intend to make further economies of about £3 million per annum during the current year. Economies in prospect in the future include those from Group Charging described in the White Paper published today.
