§ 92. Mr. GAVAN DUFFYasked the Postmaster-General whether, having regard to the industrial and business needs of the Wath Brow and Cleator districts of the parish of Cleator, Cumberland, he will, at the earliest possible date, restore 1919 the evening delivery of postal packets in those districts, seeing that two deliveries a day had been in existence for many years before the War, and even during the War until the national emergency became so great that they had to be suspended temporarily, as the official notice intimated?
§ Sir W. JOYNSON-HICKSI am having inquiry made and will write to the hon. Member.
§ Mr. DUFFYIn view of the fact that in the 12th Century there was a daily delivering of letters in Cleator, is it right that the right hon. Gentleman's Department should revert to the habits of the 12th Century?
§ Sir W. JOYNSON-HICKSThe hon. Member has been very kind in giving me previous information about Cleator, but he omitted to give me that fact. I will note it now.
