§ 17. Captain ERSKINE-BOLSTasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies the number of colonies which now have their own air-mail stamps; and whether he will suggest to all of them, including Kenya which has not, the desirability of having such stamps in the interests of propaganda?
§ Sir P. CUNLIFFE-LISTERThe only Colony issuing air-mail stamps is Malta where a 6d. postage stamp is surcharged for that purpose. It is not proposed to invite any Colonies to consider the issue of special air-mail stamps. Air-mail letters are already easily distinguishable by reason of the blue air-mail labels required by the Postal Union Convention, the use of which remains obligatory even if special stamps are issued.
