HC Deb 24 November 1964 vol 702 c165W
85. Commander Pursey

asked the Postmaster-General if he will state the additional number of indoor and outdoor Post Office staff to be engaged in Hull to deal with the increased Christmas traffic; and how many in each category are to be taken from the unemployed.

Mr. Joseph Slater

About 350 temporary staff are required for indoor work and about 500 for outdoor work in the City of Hull and about 230 for outdoor work in all the offices in the remaining area under the control of the Head Postmaster. For both indoor and outdoor work, preference will be given to suitable unemployed candidates.
