HC Deb 31 March 1909 vol 3 c453W
Mr. B. S. STRAUS

asked the Postmaster-General whether, in making any working arrangement with the National Telephone Company, Limited, for carrying on the telephone system either in Glasgow or elsewhere, he will insist on such arrangements as will ensure that all telephone employés are safeguarded to at least the same extent as has been required by the President of the Board of Trade in connection with the proposed working union between the Great Northern, Great Central, and Great Eastern Railway Companies?

Mr. SYDNEY BUXTON

I do not anticipate that any working arrangement which may be made with the National Telephone Company with regard to the telephone service in Glasgow or elsewhere will lead to a reduction in the number of telephone employés.
