§ Mr. Farrasked the Postmaster-General if he will give further consideration to the proposal to close the post office in Kirkdale Road, South Wigston, in view of the representation he has received.
§ Mr. MawbyWe have looked into this matter very carefully. We must have a post office on the new Fairfield Estate in South Wigston; and, as we cannot justify opening an office there as well as keeping open offices in both Kirk-dale Road and Canal Street, we think the right course is to close the Kirk-dale Road sub-office. I am sorry therefore that we cannot do as my hon. Friend wishes; I am writing to him.
