HC Deb 16 August 1901 vol 99 cc1162-3
MR. KEIR HARDIE

I beg to ask the Secretary to the Treasury, as representing the Postmaster General, whether he can state how many hours duty per day constitute a full time duty in regard to postmen's employment counting for the award of good conduct stripes for unestablished service previous to appointment to the establishment.

MR. AUSTEN CHAMBERLAIN

Eight hours for day duty, or seven hours for night duty, for town postmen.
