HC Deb 27 July 1916 vol 84 cc1892-3W
Mr. C. WASON

asked the Postmaster-General if he pays for the conveyance of mails from Scrabster to Stromness at the rate of £2,000 a year for a service three times a week; if this sum includes conveyance of mails from Stromness to Kirkwall by motor; and, if not, what sum is paid in respect of that service?

Mr. J. PEASE

The remuneration to be paid to the company for the reduced service has not yet been settled. I am asking that a report from Scotland should be sent me as soon as possible.
