HC Deb 03 September 1886 vol 308 c1179
SIR JULIAN GOLDSMID (St. Pancras, S.)

asked the Postmaster General, Whether there is any and, if any, what objection to adopting the French system of allowing circulars to be sent in open envelopes at the lower (viz. halfpenny) rate; and, if not, whether he will introduce it?

THE POSTMASTER GENERAL (Mr. RAIKES) (Cambridge University)

I would remind the hon. Member that a similar Question was asked on Tuesday last by the hon. Member for Preston (Mr. Tomlinson). I do not think I can add anything to the reply then given; but if the hon. Gentleman desires I will repeat it.
