HC Deb 15 July 1920 vol 131 cc2619-20W
Sir A. SHIRLEY BENN

asked the Postmaster-General if men taken on by the General Post Office, under the scheme for employing disabled soldiers, will be put on the established list and so assured of regular employment as soon as their work is proved satisfactory; and if he is aware that uncertainty as to the duration of employment is extremely disquieting to men with families to support, who, although wounded in the service of their country, are anxious to work and not to loaf?

Mr. ILLINGWORTH

I hope to absorb into the permanent service of the Post Office a large proportion of the disabled ex-service men at present temporarily employed.
