HC Deb 19 December 1969 vol 793 cc463-4W
Mr. Maddan

asked the Minister of Posts and Telecommunications what was the deficit or surplus of income and expenditure of the National Giro during the last 12 months.

Mr. Stonehouse

Information on the financial position of the National Giro, which is a matter for the Post Office, is published in the annual Post Office Report and Accounts last issued in July, 1969. It would not be appropriate for me to anticipate the publication of the next report and accounts by seeking to give such information at more frequent intervals.
