HC Deb 01 March 1937 vol 321 cc35-6W
Mr. Day

asked the Postmaster-General whether he will state the number of inland cash-on-delivery parcels delivered during the 12 months ended to the last convenient date; and whether the Post Office have any new suggestions for popularising this system?

Major Tryon

The number of inland cash-on-delivery parcels sent during the year ended 31st January, 1937, is in round figures, 2,586,000. The service has on the whole shown a steady increase since its introduction just over 10 years ago. The question of popularising this and other Post Office services is constantly kept in mind.
