HC Deb 04 April 1887 vol 313 c362
MR. HENNIKEE HEATON (Canterbury)

asked the Postmaster General, Will the proposed Australian Mail Contracts, and the Correspondence relating thereto, be submitted to the Colonial Conference?

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

My hon. Friend's Question appears to me to relate to a matter which is hardly within my jurisdiction. I may state, however, that I believe that the general question of postage with the Australian Colonies will be discussed by the Colonial Conference; and I understand the papers relating to the proposed Mail Contract will be laid before it.
