§ 14. Sir N. GRATTAN-DOYLEasked the Postmaster-General whether he is aware that under the Post Office Regulations a diary or calendar with dates or space for notes for a year is classified as printed matter, whereas a diary for one month or three months must be sent at letter rate; and for what reason this differentiation is made?
§ Sir W. MITCHELL-THOMSONAll diaries, being articles of stationery, are, in strictness, ineligible for transmission at the cheap and unremunerative Printed Paper rate. Yearly diaries 'had been allowed to pass exceptionally at the reduced rate for many years, but I am not prepared to extend the scope of this concession to include monthly or three-monthly diaries.
