HC Deb 18 July 1968 vol 768 cc255-6W
35. Mr. William Price

asked the Postmaster General to what extent the airmail parcel is now being used for the despatch of goods abroad.

Mr. Joseph Slater

The number of airmail parcels has almost doubled to over two million in the last six years. As a result, nearly one third of all overseas postal parcels now go by air.
