§ MR. ARTHUR O'CONNORasked the Postmaster General, Whether the regulations as to posting newspapers are different for town and for suburban pillar-boxes; and, if so, whether he will cause the necessary information as to the facilities afforded to be printed on the latter?
§ MR. FAWCETT, in reply, said, that the restrictions upon posting newspapers in town pillar-boxes had been imposed to prevent the boxes being blocked with newspapers and book parcels. An intimation, however, that newspapers could be posted had been placed on some suburban pillar-boxes, but not on others; but he would inquire whether any harm would result from an extension of that practice.
