41. Captain ARTHUR EVANS(for Captain D'ARCY HALL) asked the Postmaster-General whether his attention has been called to the fact that at certain houses in the Llanbadarn-Fynydd, Modrydd, and Glynn districts there is only a delivery of letters on three days a week; if he will state for each district what would be the additional annual cost of providing a daily delivery for all the inhabitants; and if he will cause the position to be reviewed at once with a view to the institution of a daily delivery?
§ Sir W. MITCHELL-THOMSONI have received representations on the matter. The additional cost of giving a daily delivery would be about £20 a year in the Llanbadarn Fynydd district and about £35 a year in the Modrydd and Glynn districts. The number of letters for the places concerned is quite insufficient to justify this increased expenditure.
§ Sir W. MITCHELL-THOMSONAbout 85 letters a week in the Llanbadarn-Fynydd district.
