HC Deb 23 February 1949 vol 461 c282W
Mr. Carson

asked the Postmaster-General why he has not yet reinstated the greetings telegram; and when this is to be done.

Mr. Wilfred Paling

The possibility of restoring the greetings telegram is under constant and close review, but I regret that conditions in the telegraph service have hitherto precluded re-introduction of the service.
