The mobile communications network is arranged in operation to establish a communications bearer between one of the mobile communications devices and one or more of the infrastructure equipment via one or more of the base stations for communicating data packets for a communications session from or to the mobile communications device via the communications bearer. The infrastructure equipment, which is supporting the communications bearer is provided with an indication of a type of the data packets communicated via the communications bearer which is associated with the communications bearer, and are arranged in operation to control the communication of the data packets via the communications bearer in accordance with a relative priority indicated by the type of the data packets communicated via the communications bearer with respect to data packets communicated via other communications bearers. In one example the control of the communication of the data packets includes storing the data packets which are of a lower priority and/or and for communication from or to a machine type communication application and preferentially not storing data packets communicated via other communications bearers of a higher priority.
