Reinstatement
of
Mrs
Bridget
Moran
the
fifth
Social
worker
is
still
under
consideration
The
Victoria

would
give

reason

he
say
whether
Mrs
Moran
would
be
re
hired
and
if
so
how
soon
she
could
be
expected
to
be
reinstated
The

co
signed
a

at
Fort
St

At
the

time
the

as
well
as
Mrs
Moran

to
leave
their
Jobs
and
march
on
Victoria
In
protest
against
conditions
in
the
welfare
department
Meanwhile
