HC Deb 16 July 1913 vol 55 c1248
62. Mr. CLYNES

asked the Postmaster-General whether an extended motor van service comes into operation in the Manchester postal district on 1st August; and whether he can take steps to ensure that the present horse van drivers shall be made efficient for motor service and be continued in their employment with the various contractors?

Mr. HERBERT SAMUEL

The reply to the first part of the hon. Member's question is in the affirmative. With regard to the second part I have obtained from the contractors for the motor service an assurance that they will do all that they can in this direction.
