HC Deb 12 October 1915 vol 74 c1216W
Mr. TYSON WILSON

asked the Postmaster-General whether girl friends and relatives of postal workers are being taken on as sorters in preference to unemployed girls who have registered for these posts; and whether he will take steps to ensure that only girls who have registered will be engaged and according to priority and I suitability?

Mr. HERBERT SAMUEL

Such employés are obtained, as a rule, through the Labour Exchanges, and where application has been made direct by persons who appear suitable they are required first to register at the Labour Exchange.
