HC Deb 25 April 1910 vol 17 cc221-2W
Mr. GILL

asked the Postmaster-General whether an intimation is conveyed to boy messengers that in the event of their deciding to enlist in the Navy or Army, when past the age of messengers, they will be able to re-enter Post Office employ at the expiration of their service with the colours as postmen or sorters through the limited competition?

Mr. HERBERT SAMUEL

No instructions have been given that the attention of boy messengers should be drawn to this fact. It is indeed a matter of common knowledge.
