HC Deb 25 February 1896 vol 37 cc1071-2
MR. PATRICK A. M'HUGH (Leitrim, N.)

I beg to ask the Secretary to the Treasury, as representing the Postmaster General, whether it is proposed to erect a new post office in Sligo; whether he is aware that the accommodation in the present post office premises is such as to inconvenience the public and endanger the health of the officials; and, whether he will give instructions to have the proposed new arrangements completed as soon as possible?

MR. HANBURY

It is proposed to erect a new post office at Sligo, and offers of sites for that purpose are now under consideration. The present office was improved last year, and the Postmaster General is not aware that the conditions are now such as to inconvenience the public and endanger the health of the officials. The arrangements for obtaining a new office will be pressed forward.
