HC Deb 24 March 1948 vol 448 c2989
14. Mr. Lipson

asked the Postmaster-General if he has now considered the inadequate remuneration at present paid to sub-postmasters and postmistresses; and what increase he proposes to make.

Mr. Wilfred Paling

An agreement was reached on the 3rd February, 1948, with the National Federation of Sub-postmasters which I hope will prove satisfactory, but the increases given are too various to be stated within the limits of a Parliamentary answer and I am writing to the hon. Member.

Mr. Lipson

Have the sub-postmasters and postmistresses been informed of this increase?

Mr. Paling

I am not sure of that, but I think that they know about it.
