§ MR. TUITE (Westmeath, N.)asked the Postmaster General, Whether he has yet decided on paying the 6d. per trip risk money to the men employed in the travelling post offices in Ireland, which he stated in February last was under the consideration of the Government; and, if so, will payment commence from the date of the Memorial (30th April, 1887) from the officers of that Department?
THE POSTMASTER GENERAL (Mr. RAIKES) (Cambridge University)No, Sir. The question is still under consideration. I hope, however, to be able to arrive at a decision upon it shortly.
