HC Deb 09 May 1951 vol 487 c232W
100. Mr. Alport

asked the Postmaster-General if he will give an assurance that the postal arrangements for the conveyance of mail between the United Kingdom and British forces serving in Korea are now working satisfactorily.

Mr. Ness Edwards

I can assure the hon. Member that reports from the Army Postal Services on the spot indicate that mail from this country is in general being conveyed smoothly and regularly to our Forces in Korea. I am, however, looking into a recent Press report of delay to individual items intended for air mail but insufficiently prepaid, and I have arranged further publicity for the Forces concessionary postage rates.
