§ MR. BRADLAUGH)I wish to ask the Postmaster General whether he will so extend the time during July for the general holiday appointed for 2nd July in celebration of the Jubilee of the Penny Post, that those employés who cannot get the holiday between 2nd July and 5th July may obtain a day's leave in lieu thereof at a later date?
§ MR. RAIKESThe step suggested by the hon. Member is already under consideration. Indeed, I hope it may be practicable to extend even beyond July the time during which a day's special leave may be given in lieu of the 2nd July, and I propose very shortly issuing a Departmental Notice on the subject.
