HC Deb 29 February 1916 vol 80 c915W
Mr. MORRELL

asked the Postmaster-General whether he is proposing to abolish or reduce Sunday work in the Post Office; and whether, in view of the increased cost of living, he will provide that, if any such change is carried out, it does not involve a compulsory reduction in the wages of postal servants?

Mr. J. A. PEASE

Proposals affecting Sunday work are under consideration and due weight will be given to their bearing upon the earnings of the staff. I should point out, however, that Sunday pay is supplementary to the normal week's wage.
