HC Deb 30 May 1946 vol 423 c219W
48. Sir I. Fraser

asked the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster if he will arrange with St. Dunstan's or the National Institute for the Blind to supply a suitable blind person to join the censorship staff in the British zone in Germany so that German blind people may use braille reading matter fully for literature and correspondence.

Mr. J. Hynd

Censorship and other difficulties are such that it is not yet practicable to send correspondence in braille through the post in Germany. The matter is being re-examined in consultation with the other occupying Powers and the hon. Member's suggestion, for which I am grateful, will be borne in mind.
