GriggIn one case recently, when an official complaint reached us from an operational theatre, it was conclusively proved after investigation that only a very small proportion of parcels of cigarettes had gone astray. Perhaps the hon. Member will send me the particulars on which his Question is based so that they, too, can be investigated.
