HC Deb 11 July 1938 vol 338 c910
42. Mr. Messer

asked the Postmaster-General whether higher rates of wages are paid and if so, what rates, in cases where young telephone girls are sent by the Post Office telephones department to work temporarily in cities away from their homes?

Sir W. Womersley

In certain circumstances a telephonist may receive higher age-pay or subsistence allowance. If the hon. Member will let me know the type of case he has in mind, I shall be glad to send him further particulars.
