HC Deb 16 November 1914 vol 68 cc235-6W
Mr. NEEDHAM

asked the Postmaster-General if he will consider the application of inland rates of postage on letters, newspapers, and parcels when these are sent to members of His Majesty's Expeditionary Forces serving abroad?

Mr. HOBHOUSE

The present rates of postage on letters and newspapers addressed to troops at the front are the same as those in force in the service between this country and the Empire generally. I have dealt with the question of parcel rates in my reply to the question addressed to me to-day by the bon. Member for Derby, to which I would refer my hon. Friend.
