Undeliverable inland parcels

Undeliverable inland parcels bearing or containing the name and address of the sender shall be returned to the sender; inland parcels which do not bear or contain the name or address of the sender shall be retained for three calendar months. If not applied for before the expiry of this period, the contents may be disposed of by public auction where this course is warranted and the net proceeds credited to post office funds, but otherwise shall be destroyed or otherwise dealt with as the Postmaster General may direct. Undeliverable inland parcels containing articles of a perishable nature may be dealt with as may be requisite.
