§ MR. SLOAN (Belfast, S.)To ask the Postmaster-General if he is aware that the female learners at Belfast have not yet had the benefits of the wages adjustments he introduced applied to them; if he can say when they will be placed on the new scale; and if there is any hope of permanent places on the establishment being found for them at an early date.
(Answered by Mr. Sydney Buxton.) I was not aware that there had been any 1330 further delay in applying the new scale but I now find that the matter is no yet quite settled. But in any case the new scale, when applied, will date back to 1st January.
