Mr. Garry Allighan
asked the Postmaster-General the total amount collected, during the 12 months prior to the latest accountable date, from public stamp machines in excess of the value of the stamps supplied from those machines.
Mr. Wilfred Paling
For the 12 months ended 31st March, 1946, the excess amount collected was approximately £1,100.
Mr. Allighan
Will the Postmaster-General see that some device is fixed to these machines so that the public do not have to pay for stamps which are not there?
Mr. Paling
If it were possible to find a completely accurate machine, we should welcome it.
