HC Deb 01 May 1896 vol 40 cc342-3
CAPTAIN DONELAN (Cork, E.)

I beg to ask the Secretary to the Treasury, as representing the Postmaster General, whether, in view of the importance of the fishing industry at Ballycotton, county Cork, and the growing popularity of the place as a seaside resort, the postal authorities will consider the desirability of affording the people the convenience of a mid-day postal service?

MR. HANBURY

No application on this subject has reached the Postmaster General, but inquiry shall be made whether the circumstances will admit of a second post in the day being granted to Ballycotton, and the result shall be communicated to the hon. Member.
