HC Deb 26 April 1901 vol 92 c1434
* LIEUT.-COLONEL TUFNELL (Essex, S.E.)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for India whether the Government of India will consider the advisability of making any reduction in their rates for inland parcel postage; and whether some reduction was actually contemplated within the last two years.

LORD G. HAMILTON

Proposals submitted by the Government of India for reducing the rates of inland parcel postage are now under the consideration of the Secretary of State in Council; and I hope that they will very shortly be approved.
