HC Deb 27 January 1959 vol 598 c98W
Mr. P. Morris

asked the Postmaster-General if he is aware of the delay in postal services between this country and Aden; and what steps he is taking to expedite deliveries.

Mr. Marples

I regret that a number of air mail dispatches from this country to Aden have suffered slight delays recently. These have been due to mechanical faults of the aircraft or to the weather. B.O.A.C. regret these delays, but says they were unavoidable.
