HC Deb 25 October 1950 vol 478 c360W
82. Mr. W. Fletcher

asked the Postmaster-General why parcels to troops serving overseas cannot be registered, although Customs forms have to be filled in and civilians are able to send parcels by registered post to the same areas.

Mr. Ness Edwards

Parcels may be insured to troops in certain areas overseas. I am considering with the Departments concerned the possibility of extending the facility. and I will write to the hon. Member as soon as possible.
