I beg to ask the Postmaster General whether he has now, in conjunction with the Home Secretary, been able to formulate regulations to prevent the distribution, through the Post Office, of touting circulars from foreign countries, inviting people to take tickets in foreign lotteries, whilst it is illegal to do so in this country?

I have given instructions for stopping such circulars as the hon. Member describes when received from abroad in open covers and for returning them to the country where they were posted.
