§ 5. Mr. Knox Cunninghamasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies to what extent it is the practice of his Department, when envelopes are in use for the first time, to send them out with economy labels containing the recipient's name and address affixed thereto; and whether, in the interests of economy, he will take steps to stop such a practice.
§ Mr. HopkinsonI find that there has been some departure in the Colonial 1156 Office from the Service rule on this matter, and the staff concerned have been reminded of the proper procedure.
§ Mr. Knox CunninghamWill my right hon. Friend bear in mind that the use of two pieces of paper, an ungummed envelope, and an economy label, is not an economy when one envelope could be used?
§ Mr. HopkinsonYes, Sir. I have that point in mind.
