HC Deb 27 October 1919 vol 120 cc317-8W
Major NALL

asked the Minister of Labour whether he is aware that some railway companies are still employing as gatekeepers and watchmen pensioners who were called up for war service; and whether he will take steps to substitute disabled soldiers in these posts?

Sir ERIC GEDDES

I have been asked to answer this question. The nature of the staff employed is primarily a matter for the company concerned, but if the hon. and gallant Gentleman will let me have particulars of any ease which he has in mind I will make inquiries.
