§ Mr. GWYNNEasked the Postmaster General whether his Department requires postal servants to attach a 2d. stamp to their wages sheet when signing for their weekly wages; and, if so, what is the reason?
§ Mr. PEASEPost Office servants are required to affix a 2d. stamp to their wages receipts, where the amount involved is £2 or more. This is in accordance with Sections 1 and 101 and the First Schedule of the Stamp Act of 1891, and the Finance Act of 1920. This matter is at present under the consideration by the National Whitley Council for the Civil Service.
