HC Deb 22 April 1996 vol 276 cc14-5W
Mr. Hawkins

To ask the Chairman of the Administration Committee what changes are planned to the system of transfer of post from the letterboard in the Members' Lobby to the internal post; and if he will make a statement. [24750]

Mr. Michael J. Martin

The Serjeant at Arms and Black Rod have commissioned a study into all aspects of the mail system for both Houses. This will include examination of the transfer of post which has not been collected from the Members' letterboard into the mail system.

I understand that the Serjeant at Arms will be writing to the hon. Member.
