HC Deb 12 January 1994 vol 235 c238W
Mr. Harry Greenway

To ask the President of the Board of Trade how many post offices in built-up areas(a) do and (b) do not have collection points for undelivered mail; how many such points have been closed in the past year; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. McLoughlin

I understand from the Post Office that post offices in built up areas do not have collection points for undelivered mail. Such collection points are, however, provided in built-up areas at Royal Mail delivery offices which all have either a morning or an all-day facility for collecting mail which it has not been possible to deliver.
