HC Deb 22 June 1966 vol 730 c86W
96. Mr. Biffen

asked the Postmaster-General what proposals he has to raise the weight limits for parcel post to at least double the present size with corresponding increases in dimensions as suggested by the Economic Development Committee for the Movement of Exports.

Mr. Benn

The possibility of allowing heavier parcels in the overseas service is being urgently examined, though my earlier inquiries suggest there is relatively little demand for this.
