§ Mr. R. YOUNGasked the Postmaster-General whether he will state the emoluments paid to the sub-postmaster of Glod-daeth St. Town Sub-office, Llandudno, including and excluding war bonus; whether he will state the weekly wages paid by the sub-postmaster to his assistants, including and excluding war bonus; whether the war bonus payments are equal to the increase in the cost of living; and whether he will state the prewar value of the combined wage and war bonus?
§ Mr. PEASEThe emoluments of the sub-postmaster for the year ended the 31st March last amounted to £377 17s. 3d., together with £57 8s. 4d. war bonus. The rate of war bonus for the current year is higher. I will make inquiries as to the wages now paid to the sub-postmasters assistants, and communicate with the hon. Member.
