HC Deb 04 February 1908 vol 183 cc700-1
MR. HENNIKER HEATON

To ask the Postmaster-Greneral, whether he is aware that the postage of a letter from France to Morocco is 10 centimes, or ld.; whether he is aware that the postage of a letter from the United Kingdom to Morocco is 2½d.; and whether he will take the necessary steps, in the interests of British commerce and trade, to reduce the postage to Morocco to ld. per letter.

(Answered by Mr. Sydney Buxton.) I am aware that the postage of a letter from France for Morocco was recently reduced and is now 10 centimes up to 20 grammes. The question of reducing the postage rate from this country is engaging my attention.
