HC Deb 28 August 1914 vol 66 c263
5. Mr. DENISON-PENDER

asked the Postmaster-General if he will consider the desirability of issuing a daily announcement at local post offices throughout the country, at an appointed time, of the announcements made by the Press Bureau about the War?

Mr. HOBHOUSE

I do not consider it desirable to extend the distribution of news received by the Post Office from the Press Bureau beyond the arrangements already made for Sunday mornings. In the week the distribution is very efficiently performed by the newspapers and the various news agencies.
