HC Deb 10 July 1893 vol 14 cc1132-3
MR. H. J. WILSON (York, W. R., Holmfirth)

I beg to ask the Postmaster General whether he is aware that candi- dates, or probationers, for the postal or telegraph departments are sometimes required to attend local examinations on Sundays; and whether he will prohibit such examinations in future?

THE POSTMASTER GENERAL (Mr. A. MORLEY, Nottingham, E.)

I have no information on the subject of my hon. Friend's question; but if he will supply me with particulars of any case where candidates have been required to attend on Sunday for the purpose mentioned, I will inquire into it. I certainly should disapprove of the practice.
