HC Deb 20 January 1969 vol 776 c40W
Mr. Stodart

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he is aware of the delays being experienced by pensioners in Scotland in the arrival of pay slips issued from the office at Crawley; and if he will arrange for these pay slips to be sent by first-class mail.

Mr. Harold Lever

The Paymaster-General's Office posts its pension vouchers (some four million a year) at least three working days before payment is due and the extra cost of using the first-class post would not be justified. Few complaints are made about late receipt but I should be grateful for information about any persistent failures.
