§ Sir R. HAMILTONasked the Postmaster-General if he is now in a position to make any statement as to the reduced mail service across the Pentland Firth and as to the resumption of the normal service?
§ Viscount WOLMERI regret that continuance of a restricted mail service 1279W across the Pentland Firth is still necessary, but I have been able to arrange that the days of sailing as from 15th November shall be Monday, Wednesday and Friday as suggested by the hon. Member. The resumption of the normal service is dependent upon the coal situation.
