HC Deb 10 July 1913 vol 55 cc581-2
40. Mr. FREDERICK WHYTE

asked the Postmaster-General whether he has received a statement of the grievances of the officials of the Galloway sorting tender; and, if so, what reply has been made?

Mr. HERBERT SAMUEL

Representations have been made to me on the subject of the trip allowances paid in addition to their wages to the sorting clerks and telegraphists employed in the Galloway sorting carriage. I have informed the memorialists that I consider the present allowances to be adequate, and that I can find no ground for making an exception in their favour to the general regulations on this subject.
