HC Deb 12 December 1946 vol 431 c284W
136. Mr. N. Macpherson

asked the Assistant Postmaster-General whether he will make arrangements for parcels containing rationed foodstuffs destined for the Continent to be despatched from any post office in the United Kingdom.

Mr. Burke

Rationed foodstuffs may be sent by parcel post to all overseas destinations to which the parcel post is in operation, under the conditions recently announced by my right hon. Friend the Minister of Food. The parcels must be certified by a food office, and can then be posted at any post office which transacts foreign parcel post business.
