I have much pleasure in informing the House that, with His Majesty's gracious assent, I propose to authorise an issue of special stamps on 26th April, 1948, to commemorate the Silver Wedding of Their Majesties the King and Queen. I propose also to issue special postage stamps on the occasion of the opening of the Olympic Games in July, 1948, and in May, 1948, on the anniversary of the liberation of the Channel Islands from German occupation.
