§ Mr. Gowerasked the Postmaster-General if he will authorise the issue of a special postage stamp to mark the holding or' the Royal National Eisteddfod of Wales.
§ Mr. MawbyApart from Royal and postal occasions and anniversaries, our policy is to issue special stamps to mark current events of outstanding national or international importance. We have never regarded this as applying to events which recur annually, and my right hon. Friend does not feel justified in making an exception in the case of the Royal National Eisteddfod of Wales.
