HC Deb 15 February 1922 vol 150 c1038W
Sir E. NICHOLL

asked the Postmaster-General, in view of statements recently appearing in the Press that the Treasury is desirous of absorbing the profits made by the Post Office on the increased charges brought into force last year, and from the fact that when the extra charges were imposed it was stated to be in consequence of the increase of costs, and that when such costs decrease the charges would be again reduced in proportion, if he will say when this promise will be honoured, as there now appears to be a credit on the Post Office working?

Mr. KELLAWAY

I shall be glad if the hon. Member will repeat his question on Monday.
