§ MR. WILES (Islington, S.)To ask the Postmaster-General when the vacancies for telephone exchange managers announced in the Post Office Circular, No. 729, on the 21st August, will be filled; whether he can state the number of vacancies which exist; and whether the appointments will be announced in the Post Office Circular.
(Answered by Mr. Sydney Buxton.) The selection of officers for the situations in question, five in number, is under consideration, and I hope to be able to arrive at a decision in the matter very shortly. Appointments of this nature are not announced in the Post Office Circular.
