Defence written question – answered at on 29 October 2008.
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence what priority is accorded to post and parcels in shipping goods for service members to theatres of operation.
The Ministry of Defence recognises the immense importance for our deployed personnel and their families of maintaining a fast and reliable mail service to and from operational theatres. The only circumstance in which mail is not moved as the highest priority is when there is an overriding requirement to support ongoing operations, for example the movement of critical combat supplies, or the provision of essential water and rations.
