HC Deb 27 November 1945 vol 416 c1288W
Miss Rathbone

asked the Assistant Postmaster-General if he will specify the names of those European countries with which we have postal arrangements such as will make it possible for aliens here to communicate with their relatives in those countries who come within his scheme for enabling distressed persons to enter this country under specified conditions.

Mr. Burke

General postal services are already available for this purpose to all European countries except Albania, Austria, Germany and Hungary, and an announcement of the resumption of postal communication with Albania and Hungary will be made this week. With regard to Germany and Austria it is hoped to make special arrangements, in collaboration with the British Elements of the Control Commissions, to enable relatives to communicate with distressed persons in those countries.
