§ Mr. NIELDasked the Postmaster-General what number of complaints have been received as to undelivered letters and postal packets or parcels during the last six months, and how the figures compare with the corresponding period of 1913–14; and whether the withdrawal of postal servants for service in the War and the filling of their places by temporary labour have been responsible to any appreciable extent for these losses?
§ Mr. HOBHOUSEI would refer the hon. Member to my answer to his previous question of the 23rd February, in the same terms, which was circulated with the Proceedings of 25th February.
