HC Deb 22 March 1933 vol 276 c328W
Mr. DORAN

asked the Postmaster-General if, in view of the fact that the majority of telephone operators working at night are disabled ex-service men, he will assure the House that as far as possible they will not be replaced by a female staff?

Sir K. WOOD

It is not the intention to displace by female staff any existing night telephone operators whose telephone occupation represents their main source of livelihood.
