HC Deb 29 January 1941 vol 368 c581W
Flight-Lieutenant Etherton

asked the Postmaster-General whether, in view of the fact that, due to the exigencies of the present time, telegrams are frequently delivered on a day other than that upon which they are handed in, he will for the benefit of the public using the telegraphic services, and to avoid confusion, issue an instruction that the day as well as the time of handing in be entered on Post Office telegraphic forms?

Captain Waterhouse

I would refer my hon. and gallant Friend to the reply which my right hon. Friend gave to the Question by the hon. Member for Tamworth (Sir J. Mellor) on 18th December last.
