HC Deb 28 March 1892 vol 3 c11
MR. P. O'BRIEN

I beg to ask the Postmaster General whether he can state the grounds upon which a candidate named E. C. Conlan, who twice presented himself for preliminary examination for the office of sorting clerk in the General Post Office, Dublin, in 1892, was each time rejected?

SIR J. FERGUSSON

The grounds were, not being tall enough and not being sufficiently educated.
