HC Deb 03 July 2000 vol 353 c93W
Mr. Robertson

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer what plans he is making to accommodate the increased quantities of letters and parcels containing goods from overseas likely to result from internet purchasing while such letters and parcels are being assessed for VAT and import duties. [126095]

Mr. Alan Johnson

I have been asked to reply.

These are matters for the Post Office and other companies handling such packets to determine in liaison with HM Customs and Excise.
