HC Deb 29 July 1897 vol 51 c1468
MR. T. M. HEALY (Louth N.)

I beg to ask the Secretary to the Treasury, as representing the Postmaster General, why since 1st May have the pillar boxes of Dublin had erroneous hours of collection painted on them; and when can the public hope that correct information will appear on the boxes?

*MR RITCHIE (for Mr. HANBURY)

As the hon. Member is aware, the recent re arrangement of mail services in Dublin made it necessary to alter the hours of collection from the pillar boxes. New enamelled plates notifying the correct hours were duly ordered, but the contractors have not yet been able to supply them. They have been requested to supply them as soon as possible.
