HC Deb 30 November 1926 vol 200 cc1000-1
28. Mr. RAMSDEN

asked the Post-master-General the number of parcels carried to date under the cash-on-delivery system, and the number refused for nonpayment?

Sir W. MITCHELL-THOMSON

The number of inland cash-on-delivery parcels posted up to the 20th November is approximately 632,000. No later figures are available. About 14,000 have been undeliverable for various reasons, including that of non-payment. It is not possible to say how many were undeliverable for this reason alone.
