HC Deb 02 December 1959 vol 614 c1176
47. Mr. Emrys Hughes

asked the Postmaster-General if he has completed his consideration of policy regarding the issue of special stamps to mark special occasions; and if he will make a statement.

Miss Pike

No, Sir.

Mr. Hughes

Does the hon. Lady, who has conducted herself so admirably in the House today, intend to tell us that in the next five years Scots people will not be able to have a stamp of Robert Burns but that we shall still have to import them from the Soviet Union?

Miss Pike

We have gone into the whole question of separate issues very carefully. I realise the hon. Member's interest in this matter. I shall be making an announcement about this in the very near future.
