§ Mr. WILESasked the Postmaster-General if he can state when the 28 established store porters who were classed as redundant when the amalgamation of the postal stores and the controller of the stores offices was effected, as a grade which would enable them to qualify for future promotion, are likely to be promoted to the rank of third class storemen?
§ Mr. BUXTONThe claims of established store porters are considered with those of other eligible officers when vacancies on the third class of storemen arise. I am unable to forecast the occurrence of the vacancies necessary for the promotion of all the store porters.
