HC Deb 03 June 1965 vol 713 cc267-8W
Sir Knox Cunningham

asked the Postmaster-General if he will now state the date upon which books of 4d. stamps will be on sale to the public; and what were the reasons for the delay in providing this service.

Mr. Benn

I am sorry that industrial action by staff in our Supplies Depots is causing difficulties in the distribution of new books of 4d. stamps to post offices: but I hope it will be possible to make a start on this next week.
