Dear Editor on Excise Office Move to Ely House
A reader argues against relocating the Excise Office to Ely House in Holborn. The letter cites increased travel for east and west traders, delays in permits from Fenchurch Street or St Mary Axe, and risk of dispatch delays. The writer suggests Mercers Hall as an alternative and warns of higher costs and land tax burdens on residents without an act of Parliament.
