HC Deb 25 October 1906 vol 163 c421
MR. ASHLEY

I beg to ask the Postmaster-General whether he proposes to put down Amendments to the Street Betting Bill by which betting in post offices, whether by telegraph or otherwise, would be prohibited.

MR. SYDNEY BUXTON

Betting by the Post Office staff is regarded as a serious offence, entailing liability to dismissal. I do not intend to put down any Amendments to the Street Betting Bill.
