§ MR. LEVY (Leicestershire, Lough-borough)To ask the Postmaster-General whether he will inform the House of the number and names of towns where the delivery of letters in the afternoon of the early closing days of the respective districts does not take place; and whether he will consider the desirability of extending the system of non-delivery in the afternoon of the early closing days.
(Answered by Mr. Sydney Buxton). The information asked for by the hon. Member is not readily available; but I may say that it is already usual, in all cases where the circumstances admit and the local authorities are in favour of such a course, to make some arrangement of the kind described on early closing days.
