HC Deb 15 May 1969 vol 783 c244W
32. Mr. Grimond

asked the Postmaster-General if he is aware that mail from New Zealand now reaches Unst in Shetland as quickly as first-class mail from Perthshire; and if he will take steps to improve the Perthshire performance.

Mr. Joseph Slater

Because of bad weather the air services to Shetland have sometimes been cancelled and this has caused delay in the transmission of mail to Unst. We shall continue to do all we can to minimise these delays.
