HC Deb 10 September 1914 vol 66 cc625-6
17. Mr. JAMES HOGGE

asked the Home Secretary who is responsible for posting the bulletins at the Post Office on Sundays; whether he is aware that they usually consist of information already published the previous day; and whether, in the event of such communications as have been published by the Press Bureau from the Secretary of State for War usually on Sunday afternoons being continued, he can arrange for summaries of these to be posted particularly where no Sunday papers are published?

The SECRETARY of STATE for the HOME DEPARTMENT (Mr. McKenna)

The matter is in the hands of the Post- master-General, and I would suggest that the question should be addressed to him.

Mr. HOGGE

Has the Postmaster-General any special means of getting war information?

Mr. McKENNA

If my hon. Friend will address his question to the Postmaster-General he will give him a full answer.

Mr. HOGGE

I beg to give notice that I will ask the Postmaster-General this question to-morrow.
