§ Mr. K. ThompsonWe do everything we can to get all letters delivered quickly, but some delay is unavoidable before24W Christmas when traffic reaches an enormous peak. Various express services are available for letters requiring special treatment: the House of Commons Postmaster will be glad to help my hon. Friend with details of these if he cares to consult him.
