HC Deb 24 August 1945 vol 413 c979W
Mr. Peter Freeman

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs when the postal services to Austria and other countries in Europe, where these facilities have not yet been arranged, will be restored.

Mr. Lawson

I have been: asked to reply. Limited postal services are in operation between the United Kingdom and the whole of Europe, with the exception of Albania, Austria, Germany and Hungary. The service with Albania is likely to be restored in the near future. The possibility of reopening the Hungarian service is under consideration. I cannot say when civilian postal services will be extended to Austria and Germany. The matter is under review in the United Kingdom—United States Zones by the Allied Control Commissions.
