HC Deb 20 December 1956 vol 562 c223W
Mr. Chetwynd

asked the Postmaster-General what action he is taking to deliver parcels addressed to troops engaged in the lighting in Egypt which were not delivered before the troops were withdrawn.

Mr. F. Maclean

I have been asked to reply. Special arrangements have been made to fly back to this country all Christmas mail which could not be delivered in Egypt, Cyprus or Malta before the Service men concerned were withdrawn. All practicable steps have been taken to have this mail delivered by Christmas.
