HC Deb 31 January 1945 vol 407 c1468W
Mr. Bartlett

asked the Postmaster-General what steps he is taking to accelerate civilian mail between this country and the liberated areas of Europe.

Captain Crookshank

As the hon. Member knows, causes of delay to civilian mail between this country and Europe exist which are beyond my control, but I can assure him that every opportunity of accelerating the mail is, and will continue to be, taken by my Department. In this connection I would mention the use made of the new direct service between London and Paris.
