HC Deb 01 August 1923 vol 167 cc1530-1W
Sir T. HENDERSON

asked the Postmaster-General whether his Department has any arrangement with foreign post offices by which the delivery of registered or insured parcels despatched to addresses in foreign countries can be traced and the receipt by the consignees certified?

Sir L. WORTHINGTON-EVANS

Except in a few unimportant services certificates of the delivery of insured parcels despatched abroad can be obtained by the senders on payment of a fee of 3d. There is no system of registration as distinct from insurance in the foreign and Colonial parcel services.
