§ Mr. TOUCHEasked the Postmaster General whether the General Post Office has received claims for refundment of charges in respect of unstamped envelopes or postal packets, on the ground that stamps were duly affixed but came off in transit owing to the inferior adhesive quality of the gum used by the new contractors; and whether such claims have been recognised and satisfied?
§ The POSTMASTER-GENERAL (Mr. Herbert Samuel)Such claims are complied with where they are well-founded.
