HC Deb 17 February 1919 vol 112 c609W
Lord H. CAVENDISH-BENTINCK

asked the Postmaster-General whether he will now consider the position of the Postal and Telegraph Clerks' Association and will grant the association recognition for all grades covered by its membership, including those who are typists?

Mr. ILLINGWORTH

I regret I am unable to modify my decision in this matter. The typists in question form only a minority of the typists employed by the Post Office in the provinces, and it would be inconvenient that they should be represented by a different association from the rest of their class.
