HC Deb 16 December 1974 vol 883 cc308-9W
Mr. Mikardo

asked the Secretary of State for Industry whether he will bring up to date the figure for the payment by the Post Office to British Railways for carrying parcels that was given on page 194 of the Select Committee on Nationalised Industries' report on the National Freight Corporation.

Mr. Gregor Mackenzie

I understand from the Post Office that the equivalent payment in 1973–74 was £11.6 million.
