§ Mr. Barry FieldTo ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry (I) if he will list those Post Office sorting offices where the catering facilities are provided(a) by direct labour and (b) by independent contractors;
(2) if he will list those Post Office sorting offices with catering facilities.
§ Mr. ForthThe provision of catering facilities is a matter for the Post Office. I understand that there are 789W 1,600 Post Office sorting offices, all of which have some form of catering facility. In many cases this is limited to facilities for staff to prepare food for themselves. I have placed a full list of sorting offices in the Library.
