HC Deb 14 November 1956 vol 560 c926
6. Mr. du Cann

asked the Postmaster-General whether parcels addressed to approved organisations for Hungarian relief in the United Kingdom or abroad will be accepted henceforward at post offices in the United Kingdom free of postal charges.

Dr. Hill

I told the organisations concerned with Hungarian relief in this country that I should be willing that relief parcels should be delivered free of postal charges. They replied that so much generosity is being shown by the British people that they do not consider it necessary at this juncture to ask for free postage.
