HC Deb 27 February 1978 vol 945 c11W
33. Sir Anthony Royle

asked the Secretary of State for Industry if he will introduce an amendment to the Post Office Act 1969 which will compel the Post Office to operate a Sunday collection of the mail.

Mr. Les Huckfield

No. One of the purposes of the Post Office Act 1969 was to afford the Post Office a broad measure of autonomy in such operational matters.
