HC Deb 16 November 1960 vol 630 c42W
64. Mr. Stones

asked the Postmaster-General what developments have taken place with regard to improvement of Post Office accommodation and facilities at Consett.

Mr. Bevins

I am glad to be able to tell the hon. Member that a new post office at Consett will be opened next spring. The building will include a new sorting office as well as a better public office, and I hope that both the public and post office staff will benefit as a result of the improved conditions. We are also building a new motor transport workshop at Consett.
