§ Mr. Arthur Lewisasked the Lord President of the Council whether he is aware that the Government's publication The Fight Against Inflation has not yet been delivered to 3 per cent. of the population, including those residents in the London borough of Newham; what is the reason for this; and what action he proposes to take to deal with the matter.
§ Mr. Edward ShortDelivery has been delayed in most parts of the areas served by the North-Western, Eastern and Northern District Post Offices in London. The local staff concerned have refused 163W to observe the agreed delivery arrangements in the time required to do the job, despite every effort by management and the existence of a national agreement with the UPW to handle the booklet. Negotiations are continuing.
