HC Deb 12 June 1874 vol 219 c1497
MR. NAGHTEN

asked the Postmaster-General. If he has had his attention called to the want of proper ventilation that exists in the sorting offices of the General Post Office; and, if so, whether he is prepared to adopt a remedy for a state of things that is injurious to the health of those employed in that Department?

LORD JOHN MANNERS

, in reply, said, that his attention had not been called to the subject until the Question of the hon. Member had been put on the Paper. Extensive alterations were in contemplation, and these would give increased space to those employed in the sorting offices.
