§ CAPTAIN DONELAN) (Cork, N.I beg to ask the Postmaster Genera) whether he is aware that the notice of the General Post Office giving the latest times for posting letters to the United States mentions the days and hours viâ Southampton only; and whether the same information can be given viâ Queenstown?
§ MR. A. MORLEYI am informed that the despatches of mails to the United States both viâ Queenstown and viâ Southampton are duly advertised in all the, official publications. Attention was some time ago drawn to the omission of any mention of the Queenstown route from a posting notice exhibited at the General Post Office, and the information was at once supplied.
§ CAPTAIN DONELANMay I ask the right hon. Gentleman whether he is aware that the information regarding the Queenstown route is still only conveyed by posting slips in small type and partly written on a corner of the notice paper at the Post Office? I inquired at the General Post Office yesterday, and was told that there had been no time to have them properly printed. Will the right 881 hon. Gentleman take steps to ascertain who is responsible for this culpable negligence?
§ MR. A. MORLEYI do not consider it is culpable negligence. The matter has now been rectified, and proper notices will be posted.
