HC Deb 20 February 1893 vol 8 c1851
MR. FLYNN (Cork, N.)

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether it is in contemplation to make any changes in the staff of the Dublin Post Office; and is the position of the Secretary ship at present vacant, or likely to become so soon; if so, will the Post Office authorities in making the new appointment recognise the claims and services of Irishmen who are eligible for promotion?

THE POSTMASTER GENERAL (Mr. A. MORLEY,) Nottingham, E.

I have been asked to reply to this question. No changes in the staff of the Dublin Post Office are in contemplation. As regards the second part of the question, I informed the hon. Member for the North Division of Dublin County, in answer to a question, that, so far as I am aware, there is no foundation for the rumour that the Secretary to the Post Office in Ireland is about to vacate his office.
