§ MR. NIELD (Middlesex, Ealing)To ask the Postmaster-General whether he is aware that two rural postmen in the district of the Chiltern Hills have recently died by reason of the excessive severity of their work; and whether he will consider the advisability of providing those whose duties are in the hilly districts with suitable conveyances for the conveyance of mails and parcels post, and so relieve the heavy strain to which in the past they have been subjected.
(Answered by Mr. Sydney Buxton.) I will make inquiry on the subject and will acquaint the hon. Member with the result.
