HC Deb 26 January 1949 vol 460 cc144-5W
122. Mr. Platts-Mills

asked the Postmaster-General whether the negotiations with the Post Office Engineering Union regarding the claim for increased wages have yet been concluded; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Wilfred Paling

I am glad to say that these negotiations have resulted in agreement. The agreed settlement provides for increases ranging from 5s. to 8s. for adult men, with corresponding increases for the women and juvenile grades.
