HC Deb 16 February 1922 vol 150 c1228W
Sir W. SEAGER

asked the Postmaster-General whether he will consider the representations made by the Federation of Master Printers and the Newspaper Society, with a view to obtaining a reduction in the present postal rates; and whether he is aware that the imposition of the present postal rates penalises the printing trade by the restriction in the use of postcards, reduces the use of catalogues and printed advertisement matter, and has resulted in a considerable amount of unemployment amongst the operatives of the industry?

Mr. KELLAWAY

I would refer the hon. Member to the answer I gave to questions by the hon. Members for Central Hull (Lieut. - Commander Kenworthy) and Central Bristol (Mr. Inskip) on Tuesday last, 14th February.
