§ 37. Mr. HALESasked the Postmaster-General what loss in revenue has taken place since the doubling of the charges for daily letter telegrams and the abolition of the weekly letter telegrams between England and India; and, having regard to the inconvenience to the mercantile community caused thereby, if he will take steps to restore at an early date the facilities previously existing between the two countries?
§ Sir E. BENNETTThe telegraph service with India is conducted by a telegraph company and not by the Post Office. I am, however, making inquiry of the company concerned, and I will communicate with my hon. Friend as soon as I receive their reply.
