HC Deb 20 March 1894 vol 22 c697
MR. BYLES) (York, W.R., Shipley

I beg to ask the Postmaster General whether he is aware that the postmen employed at the Idle Post Office, in the Shipley Division of the North West Riding of Yorkshire, are worked from 6.30 to 8 p.m., 13 and a-half hours per day, with scant intervals for meals, and for a weekly wage of 16s.; and whether he can see his way to shorten these hours?

* MR. A. MORLEY

I have no reason to believe that the facts stated in the question are true. The question only appeared on the Paper to-day, and I shall be obliged to call for a Report. I will inform the hon. Member of the result.
