§ MR. NANNETTITO ask the Postmaster-General if he will say what classes in the circulation office and the metropolitan head district offices are equivalent to the second-class assistant-superintendents' class which exists in the central telegraph office and in the provincial sorting and telegraph offices.
(Answered by Lord Stanley.) In the circulation office and the metropolitan district offices there is only one class paid on the same scale, if that is the point to which the hon. Member refers, as the second-class assistant - superintendents at the central telegraph office, viz., the class of inspectors in charge (lower section) attached to the counter and telegraph staff. The duties, are, of course, dissimilar.
