HC Deb 09 July 1903 vol 125 c150
MR. ALFRED DAVIES (Carmarthen Boroughs)

I beg to ask the Postmaster-General if he is aware that the Postmaster-General of the United States refers in his last annual report to the benefits of international sea post offices and the desirability of securing the co-operation of Great Britain in extending the service to steamers under its contract; and also will he reconsider whether space and expense need be barriers to the establishment of sea post offices on the Cunard steamers, in view of the provision made on the "Deutsch-land" for this purpose, and the price charged.

THE POSTMASTER-GENERAL (Mr. AUSTEN CHAMBERLAIN,) Worcestershire, E.

The question of the establishment of sea post offices on the British Packets which convey mails to and from the United States is now under consideration.
