§ MR. HERBERT SAMUELI beg to ask the Postmaster-General to what portions of the British Empire money may be sent from the United Kingdom by means of postal orders; from what portions of the Empire money may be similarly sent to the United Kingdom; and whether he will take steps to secure an extension of the postal order system so that it shall be available between the United Kingdom and all the Colonies and Dependencies.
§ THE POSTMASTER-GENERAL (Mr. AUSTEN CHAMBERLAIN, Worcestershire, E.)Malta and Gibraltar are the only; parts of the British Empire to which money can at present be remitted from the United Kingdom by means of postal orders; but postal orders are procurable for remittances to this country in Malta, Gibraltar, India, the Straits Settlements, Hong Kong, Newfoundland and British Guiana. I have now under consideration the question of extending the postal order system, so that it shall be available between the United Kingdom and other parts of the Empire.
