HC Deb 06 April 1908 vol 187 c943
COLONEL LOCKWOOD

I beg to ask the Postmaster-General whether his attention has been called to the case of John Dixon, who was convicted at Swindon Borough Police Court on 23rd March of cruelty to a horse employed to draw the Post Office mails from Winter-borne Monkton to Swindon; and what steps he proposes to take.

THE POSTMASTER-GENERAL (MR. SYDNEY BUXTON,) Tower Hamlets, Poplar

I have received a Report on this subject; but I am not yet in a position to say what steps should be taken in the matter. When a decision is arrived at, I will communicate with the hon. Member.
