HC Deb 22 March 1910 vol 15 cc1026-7W
Mr. TYSON WILSON

asked the Postmaster-General if he will state the rates of pay, privileges, etc., of viewers employed inspecting articles made in the Department or by contractors?

Mr. HERBERT SAMUEL:

Arrangements have recently been made for two established classes of viewers employed in the Stores Department (London), namely: Senior viewers, with a scale of pay rising from 42s. by 2s. to 50s. a week, and viewers, with a scale rising from 33s. by 1s. 6d. to 42s. a week. For these classes the prescribed period of annual leave is fourteen days, and the privileges as regards sick pay, pension, etc., are those applying generally to established classes of Post Office servants.
