§ MR. MACFIEasked the Postmaster General, If he will consider whether it is not expedient to encourage the registering of letters that contain stamps, notes, and jewellery by reducing the fee for registration to two pence?
§ MR. MONSELLIt is very doubtful, Sir, whether a fee of 2d. for the registration of each letter would cover the expenses. Therefore, I can hold out to my hon. Friend no hope of the reduction of the fee.
