§ Lord C. BERESFORDasked the Postmaster-General whether, although a communication was sent to the Holt Committee, they did not investigate the conditions and wages of the male cleaners; and, if so, whether he will look into the question with a view to raising these men's wages, seeing that the majority of local governing bodies pay their labourers 25s. a week with a weekly half-holiday, and male cleaners are only paid 21s. a week and receive no half-holiday?
