HC Deb 22 February 1961 vol 635 c59W
68. Sir L. Ropner

asked the Postmaster-General what was the total revenue received by the Post Office for postage due on unstamped and under-stamped letters during 1960; and whether he will reduce the level of this surcharge.

Miss Pike

About £240,000. As to the second part of the Question, the costs involved in collecting these surcharges give me no scope for reducing their level.
