§ MR. BOWLESI beg to ask the Postmaster-General whether his attention has been called to the case of Mr. Frank Gorst, son of Mr. Charles Gorst, licensee of the King's Head Hotel, Tiviot Dale, who was recently engaged as a messenger at the Stockport post office and who was subsequently dismissed on the sole ground that he resided upon licensed premises; whether there is any fixed regulation in the Post Office Department under which this dismissal was ordered; and, if so, whether he will consider the desirability of revising such regulation.
§ THE POSTMASTER-GENERAL (Mr. SYDNEY BUXTON, Tower Hamlets, Poplar)I am making inquiry on the subject and will communicate the result to the hon. Member.
