§ MR. SEXTON (Belfast, W.)I beg to ask the Postmaster General whether full pay during sick leave has recently been granted to officers of the Post Office in England and Scotland; and whether the measure is to apply also to Ireland; and, if so, why the Belfast office has not been included in the new scheme?
§ A LORD OF THE TREASURY (Sir H. MAXWELL,) WigtonYes, Sir; the new rule granting full pay during sick leave applies to Ireland, and it is already in operation at Belfast.
