§ Sir WALTER NUGENTasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he is aware that the rule prohibiting the sale of high-value insurance stamps to any employer who does not emply over fifty men is causing inconvenience and unnecessary trouble; and whether, in view of the fact that it would entail no loss to the Treasury, he will have the rule altered so as to permit the high-value stamps to be provided in post offices in all country towns and sold to whoever may apply for them?
§ Mr. MASTERMANThe sale of high-value stamps at post offices is not restricted in the manner suggested in the question. Stamps representing quarterly contributions for men and women respectively are already available at head and branch post offices, and can be obtained through any other post office on notice.
