§ MR. CUNINGHAME GRAHAMI beg to ask the Postmaster General why the details as to the number, wages, &c, of unestablished and auxiliary postmen HI the country, given in the Estimates, are not also given as to those employed in London; and whether such information could be supplied in future? I also wish to ask whether the right hon. Gentleman can give particulars of the number, payment, hours of labour, and length of service of the unestablished and auxiliary postal employ°s in London?
§ *MR. RAIKESThe information with regard to wages is given at page 68 of the Estimates for 1890ߝ91. The numbers cannot be stated in advance on account of the fluctuations necessary to meet the requirements of the Service. I shall be happy to add the information asked for by the hon. Member with respect to the men employed at present to the Return which is now being prepared for Parliament, relative to the terms of employment for postmen in London and certain other large towns.
