HC Deb 13 July 1914 vol 64 c1509W
Sir J. D. REES

asked the Prime Minister whether the terms of reference to the Post Office Committee will include an inquiry into the grievances of the retrenched public servants from South Africa and of the Post Office engineering staff?

The PRIME MINISTER

The terms of reference to the Committee, which I announced on Wednesday last, include all issues arising out of the Holt Report. The grievances of members of the Post Office engineering staff will accordingly fall within the scope of the Committee's inquiry, but the case of the retrenched officials will not.
