HC Deb 19 August 1889 vol 339 c1668
MR. HUNTER

I beg to ask the Postmaster General whether a vacancy occurred in the supervising class of the Aberdeen telegraph staff in June, 1888; what is the reason of the delay in filling it up; and when a fresh appointment will be made?

* MR. RAIKES

I understand that a vacancy caused by the death of a clerk in the Aberdeen Post Office has not yet been filled up, and I have given instructions for the matter to be brought before me as soon as possible. I am unable to say what the cause of the delay has been at present.
