HC Deb 03 November 1965 vol 718 c184W
Mr. Peter Mills

asked the Postmaster-General what steps he will take to ensure that village sub-postmasters in the lower income bracket receive an adequate return for their work and so permit the continuance of this valuable service to rural communities.

Mr. Benn

The remuneration of sub-postmasters is based on the amount of Post Office business they transact, but certain minimum payments apply however little the work involved. I am currently reviewing sub-postmasters' remuneration in conjunction with the National Federation of Sub-Postmasters.
