HC Deb 19 March 1947 vol 435 c71W
74. Mr. Sorensen

asked the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster whether British fathers of children born, or about to be born, to German women, will be enabled to secure and despatch from this country to those mothers essential requirements for them and the children beyond the parcel weight limit now allowed.

Mr. J. Hynd

The existing regulations permit the despatch each month of four 11 lb. parcels of second-hand clothing, footwear and medicines or of three such parcels and one 7 lb. parcel of non-perishable rationed food. I am investigating whether some special provision can be made in the cases referred to.
