HC Deb 11 July 1887 vol 317 cc351-2
MR. T. E. ELLIS (Merionethshire)

asked the Secretary to the Treasury, In which Welsh newspapers, or newspapers published in Wales, are notices and announcements relating to Civil Service Examinations inserted?

THE SECRETARY (Mr. JACKSON) (Leeds, N.)

All competitions by the Civil Service Commissioners are advertised in the principal London papers on Thursdays, and the Commissioners take every possible opportunity of making this fact widely known. In addition, advertisements are inserted in Provincial papers circulating in the neighbourhood of any local centre at which a competition is to beheld. Thus, advertisements of certain examinations appear in The Cambrian, The Cardiff Times, The Swansea Herald, and The Swansea Journal.
