HC Deb 26 January 1949 vol 460 cc146-7W
Mr. Vane

asked the Postmaster-General on which stage of the journey between Kendal and London was the bag containing registered parcels, about which he has already corresponded, last checked as being complete and first checked as having been tampered with.

Mr. Wilfred Paling

The sealed bag concerned was intact when it was checked and despatched from Kendal Post Office at 6.25 p.m. on the 18th of August, 1948. A cut was observed in the base of the bag when it was checked on receipt at the London Parcel Section at 8.45 a.m. on the 19th of August.
