HC Deb 16 December 1902 vol 116 cc1329-30
MR. SCHWANN

To ask the Postmaster General whether he is aware that officers employed in the electric lighting department at the Manchester post office are called upon to work eight hours when on night duty, although the Tweedmouth Committee recommended that seven hours should constitute a full night duty; is he also aware that these officers do not receive time and a-half for Sunday duty; and whether he will take action to bring these alleged irregularities into harmony with the recommendations of the Committee.

(Answered by Mr. Austen Chamberlain.) I will inquire into the case of these officers.
