asked the Postmaster-General whether the mail van robbery of May, 1952, is still being investigated.

Mr. Alport

Yes, Sir.

Lieut.-Colonel Lipton

Is the hon. Member aware that according to a recent book and newspaper articles certain people claim to know who the criminals are? Can steps be taken to interview them and collect their evidence?

Mr. Alport

I am not aware that any evidence has been published which is not already known to the police and the Post Office Investigation Branch.
