HC Deb 17 May 1972 vol 837 c116W
84. Mr. Wallace

asked the Minister of Posts and Telecommunications if he will give a general direction to the Post Office Corporation to establish post offices in areas which meet certain criteria of social need.

Sir J. Eden

No. The Post Office already seeks to meet such needs as part of the general duty laid upon it in Section 9 of the Post Office Act, 1969.
