HC Deb 23 February 1949 vol 461 c1846
32. Major McCallum

asked the Postmaster-General if he will make arrangements for mails to be despatched to and from the Island of Coll by aircraft which are already flying there under charter to collect perishable food supplies for Glasgow merchants when the weather is too bad to permit of calls by the steamer serving the island.

Mr. Wilfred Paling

I am looking into this matter and will write to the hon. and gallant Member as soon as possible.

Major McCallum

Will the Postmaster-General press the Minister of Civil Aviation to see if an air service cannot be run to this island?

Mr. Paling

If it is possible to do anything in this direction I shall do it.
