HC Deb 22 May 1882 vol 269 c1254
MR. BROADHURST

asked the Postmaster General, Whether, in the event of his successful establishment of the Post Office parcel system, he will take into consideration the desirability of arranging a plan like that known in Germany as the "Pay on Delivery" system?

MR. FAWCETT

, in reply, said, the introduction of a Post Office parcel system would form so large an addition to the work of the Post Office that he would rather defer the consideration of such a scheme as that suggested by his hon. Friend until the parcel post had been brought into actual operation.
