HC Deb 17 January 1968 vol 756 cc619-20W
Mr. Michael Heseltine

asked the Postmaster-General what changes he proposes to make in the regulations concerning the free post before the next General Election.

Mr. Edward Short:

I propose to bring the permissible dimensions for envelopes into line with the Post Office preferred range by increasing the minimum from 4 ins X 2¾ ins to 5½ ins X 3½ ins and the maximum from 9 ins X 4½ ins to 9¼ ins X 4¾ ins. Details of other changes are not quite ready, but I shall put full proposals to the headquarters of the three main political parties within a week or two.

Forward to
