HC Deb 24 April 1970 vol 800 cc180-1W
Mr. Fortescue

asked the Minister of Posts and Telecommunications what use his Department makes of the National Giro for regular payments of salaries and pensions, and for other purposes; and, in view of the under-used capacity of the Giro, whether he will consider using it more.

Mr. Pentland:

About 300 payments a month for wages and other purposes. Further use of Giro will be made where appropriate.
