§ MR. THOMAS SUTHERLANDI beg to ask the Postmaster General if he is aware that in Scotland the form of vaccination certificate given out to be filled up on the registration of a child's birth is charged at the rate of a penny postage, instead of a halfpenny as in England; and if be will have this difference of charge remedied?
§ *MR. RAIKESMere certificates are passed at the book-rate of ½d. in Scotland as well as in this country. But vaccination notices are considered to be letters, and the charging of letter postage in the cases to which the hon. Member refers has no doubt arisen from the fact that the certificates have been accompanied by the notices. I am, however, now in correspondence with the Registrar General of Scotland with a view to an arrangement which, I trust, will be satisfactory.
