Post Office (Terrorist Activities)

HC Deb 22 November 1971 vol 826 cc293-4W

Rev. Ian Paisley

asked the Minister of Posts and Telecommunications how much money has been lost to the Post Office in the past 12 months through terrorist activity.

Mr. Chataway

The Post Office tells me that readily identifiable losses of cash and mail vans attributable to terrorist activities in Northern Ireland amount to over £50,000 Details of other costs to the Post Office, for example through damage to buildings, are not at present available.
