§ MR. LABOUCHERE (Northampton)I beg to ask the Postmaster General whether there is any objection to a person changing his lodgings, notifying the Post 65 Office of the change, and having his letters officially re-directed to the new lodgings, as in the case of householders?
§ MR. A. MORLEYThe movements of that part of the population which inhabits lodgings are somewhat eccentric, and the Post Office would find it onerous and almost impossible to be continually tracing these migratory lodgers even if a notification is supplied. In most cases no difficulty occurs now that re-direction of letters is free, and the Department has gone far to meet the convenience of these persons who make private arrangements to get their letters forwarded. Without making any strict rule, the Department will do its best to oblige lodgers where application is made.
