HC Deb 13 November 1945 vol 415 c2062W
Mr. Garry Allighan

asked the Assistant Postmaster-General if he is aware that Army personnel in Nairobi are now having to wait from 12 to 18 days for mail from Britain, whereas before the Army Post Office closed down they were receiving mail regularly six to eight days from the date of dispatch; and whether he will take steps to see that mail from home is delivered more expeditiously.

Mr. Burke

I am aware that there has recently been delay in the delivery of some of the correspondence for Army personnel in Nairobi. Every effort is being made to improve the service, and I can assure my hon. Friend that the position is being very closely watched.
