HC Deb 28 March 1922 vol 152 cc1137-8
70. Rear-Admiral SUETER

asked the Postmaster-General whether he can see his way to restore, at an early date, the Sunday night collection, as a first step towards the restoration of full Sunday postal facilities?

Mr. KELLAWAY

I would refer the hon. and gallant Member to my reply to the hon. and gallant Member for Horn-castle (Captain Hotchkin) on the 22nd March.

Mr. LYLE-SAMUEL

When are we likely to have a statement on this very important matter?

Mr. KELLAWAY

As the Government fully realises its importance, no avoidable delay will be allowed.

Mr. LINDSAY

Will the right hon. Gentleman give an undertaking not to re-introduce Sunday work until the House has had an opportunity of considering the matter?

Mr. KELLAWAY

I will consider what my hon. Friend has said.
