HC Deb 27 July 1914 vol 65 cc926-7
66. Sir C. KINLOCH-COOKE

asked the Postmaster-General if he will give the date when the agreement between this country and the Dominion of Canada respecting the rates of postage charged for sending British magazines to Canada ended; and what is the position at the present time?

Mr. HOBHOUSE

The present rates of postage on British newspapers, magazines, and trade journals sent from the United Kingdom to Canada will remain in force until the 31st of December next. I hope shortly to be in a position to make a statement as regards the conditions of the service after that date.
