§ Mr. MANDERasked the Postmaster-General whether, in view of the fact that the Post Office, in accordance with the postal regulations, is under no legal obligation to give compensation for lost registered letters insured through the Post Office, he will consider the advisability of altering the practice with a view to securing 'a closer approach to equity?
§ Major TRYONThe position of the Post Office in this matter is determined not merely by postal regulations but by Statute. The regulations under which compensation is paid for lost registered letters are administered equitably, and I can see no reason for any change of practice.
