HC Deb 12 May 1965 vol 712 c63W
57. Mr. Robert Cooke

asked the Postmaster-General what fee he has agreed with the firm of American consultants who are to inquire into Post Office matters; what will be the duration of the inquiry; and whether he will publish their report.

Mr. Benn

I do not think it would be proper to make public information about fees paid for professional services of this nature. I understand the consultants aim to finish round about the turn of the year. As my right hon. Friend the Prime Minister told the House yesterday we shall look at the Report when it is ready to see whether it would be appropriate to publish it.
