This book captures the proceedings of a select committee meeting formed by the legislative assembly in 1863 to consider a complaint regarding letters sent to parliamentary members. Its main focus is to present the evidence taken before the committee, revealing the rules governing which letters addressed to members of parliament could be delivered free of charge. In particular, it investigates whether the previous practice of accepting unstamped letters addressed to members and marked "Parliamentary" should continue during the 1863 session. The author, through the committee, explores the potential implications of allowing such letters to pass through the post without prepayment and provides an insight into the evolution and implementation of postal regulations and protocols within the Cape Colony's parliament. This book offers valuable information for those interested in the development of parliamentary procedure, the history of postal services, and the establishment of legal frameworks governing communication channels within legislative bodies.
