Mr. T. F. RICHARDSasked the Postmaster-General whether he is aware that the hours of work for carters and drivers employed on railway work in Manchester are less and the wages more than in the case of the mail cart drivers employed in that city; and will he take steps to, at least, place the drivers of mail vehicles on an equal footing with other workers engaged on similar employment?
§ Mr. BUXTONI am having inquiry made on the subject.
