HC Deb 11 February 1915 vol 69 c740W
Colonel WARDE

asked the Postmaster-General whether he will consider the possibility of conceding to the relations of I those serving at the front the privilege of sending parcels to them by post either at nominal charges or without payment, seeing that, under the present scale of charges, the poorer classes are debarred from the satisfaction of supplying comforts to their relations by this means?

Mr. HOBHOUSE

I would refer the hon. and gallant Member to the reply which I gave to the hon. Member for Bedford on the 4th instant.
