after they have been carefully counted, a certificate of posting must be signed by the person posting the circulars and the officer receiving them. Stamps for the value must then be affixed to the certificate, and the certificate forwarded to the Accountant. In the case of sub-offices, authority must be obtained through the Chief Postmaster, who will issue a “Paid” stamp for the occasion. Certificates of posting must be sent to the Chief Postmaster.
(3.) All circulars or newspapers (see Rule 330) prepaid in cash which may be posted during any periodical count are to be excluded from the four returns sent to the General Post Office during the year; but an accurate account of all such circulars or newspapers posted must be carefully kept by Chief Postmasters, and a statement attached to the annual returns giving particulars of the number posted and the rates at which each lot was paid for. Any circulars or newspapers posted and prepaid in cash at sub-offices should be included in the annual return from the Chief Office.
321. The Department delivers circulars or other printed matter prepaid in cash, and addressed merely “The Householder,” with or without place of delivery. If no place is mentioned, the town of posting is to be understood as the place of delivery. Delivery of such matter is to be made by letter-carrier to every householder within the letter-carriers’ respective deliveries so far as the supply goes. A supply of circulars, &c., to the number of not less than 1,000 may be prepaid in cash at the ordinary rates of postage for such distribution. Numbers less than 1,000 must be stamped before being posted. Before accepting 1,000 or any larger number, prepaid in cash, permission must be obtained from the Accountant by telegraph in the ordinary course.
322. Any “Householder” circulars undelivered may be returned to the persons posting them.
323. No newspaper published in the colony may pass through any post-office, under the regulations of the newspaper post, until it has been registered at the General Post Office. Applications for registration, accompanied by a copy of the newspaper, and the fee for registration, 5s., must be made to the Secretary. Newspapers published and registered outside the colony may be posted as if registered in New Zealand, provided they conform with the requirements of the Post Office
