§ Mr. Parkerasked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury whether he is aware that acting supervisors of messengers employed in the Civil Service, with many years of service in most instances and with upwards of four to five years' supervisory service, are conditioned to the same quotas of annual and sick leave as temporary messengers with only six months' service; and whether he will consider effecting an improvement in the position.
§ Mr. PeakeUnestablished messengers carrying out the full duties of established messengers are allowed the pay and annual leave of established messengers. I am not prepared to amend the regulations60W in order that one particular class of unestablished civil servants should have the sick leave terms at present allowed only to established officers.
