HC Deb 19 April 1971 vol 815 c327W
5. Mr. Scott-Hopkins

asked the Minister of Posts and Telecommunications if he will issue a general direction to the Post Office to redesign the new stamps, in order that they may be more easily distinguished from those in use before decimalisation.

Mr. Chataway

This is in the first instance for the Post Office but the old stamps are no longer being issued so that any risk of confusion with the new should be short-lived.
