asked the Postmaster-General how many orders for first-day cover services for the International Geographical Congress special issue had been received by the Philatelic Bureau on or before 1st July; how many covers were dispatched on 1st July; and on what date the last of these covers were dispatched.

In round figures, 3,900 orders were received for a total of 10,000 first-day covers. I am glad to be able to tell the hon. Member that all the covers were posted on the 1st July.
