§ Mr. WATTasked the Postmaster-General whether ex-servants of his Department who have been dismissed by it as medically unfit have been accepted by the War Office as medically fit for that 1744W Department; and will he be prepared to accept in future the War Office standard of fitness in health?
Mr. PIKE PEASEI am not aware of any such cases. Some Post Office servants who have been retired on medical grounds may have obtained temporary employment at the War Office, but this fact would not necessarily indicate that they are physically fit for Post Office duties—possibly of an entirely different character.
