HC Deb 31 July 1900 vol 87 cc176-7
MR. DEWAR (Edinburgh, S.)

I beg to ask the Secretary to the Treasury, as representing the Postmaster General, if he can now say whether the scheme of revision for the sorting branch of the Edinburgh Post Office, which he stated was under the consideration of the Treasury in March, and on other occasions intimated would be decided very shortly, is likely to be sanctioned before Parliament rises.

MR. HANBURY

Some of the provisions of the scheme have been sanc- tioned, but certain questions relating to the superior appointments proposed are reserved for further consideration.
