§ 86 Captain ORMSBY-GOREasked the Postmaster-General whether he has received complaints regarding the heating of the large station sorting office at Stafford; whether on several nights during the past month the night staff of upwards of fifty men and women have been compelled to work in an unheated room when the weather was bitterly cold; and whether he will have the matter inquired into?
§ Mr. ILLINGWORTHI had not received any complaints on this subject. I find, however, that, owing to a failure of the fuel supply, it was unfortunately necessary to close down the heating for two days. Every effort is being made to obviate further difficulty of the kind.
