Decimalised Coin Boxes

HC Deb 19 April 1971 vol 815 cc327-8W

10. Mr. Orbach

asked the Minister of Posts and Telecommunications if he will give a general direction to the Post Office Corporation to remedy the shortage of decimalised coin boxes.

Mr. Chataway

No. This is the responsibility of the Post Office. I understand that by the middle of March 98 per cent. of all coin boxes had been converted to decimal coins and the programme is now virtually complete.
