Mr. MIDDLETON
asked the Postmaster-General whether the appointment by his predecessor of a committee to advise him on matters of Post Office policy entails any charge upon public funds; and whether he will consider the question of terminating the services of a committee which has no responsibility to Parliament?
Mr. CHAMBERLAIN
No charge from public funds has yet been incurred, apart from a small expenditure on typewriting. I am reappointing the Advisory Council, which, I would point out, is not an executive body.
