HC Deb 26 June 1891 vol 354 c1593
MR. SEXTON

I beg to ask the Postmaster General whether he is aware that letters arriving at Londonderry at 12.10 p.m. are not delivered even to persons residing or doing business close by the post office until about 1 o'clock, though the letters are sorted in transit from Dublin and the post office is only five minutes' walk from the railway station; and whether, in connection with the pending acceleration, he will endeavour to arrange for a more prompt delivery by any needful revision of the Londonderry Post Office staff?

*THE POSTMASTER GENERAL (Mr. RAIKES,) Cambridge University

In reply to the hon. Member, I have to state that I shall be glad to make inquiry upon the subject to which he refers, and to effect any acceleration in the delivery which may be practicable.
