HC Deb 26 March 1897 vol 47 c1436
MR. PATRICK O'BRIEN (Tipperary, N.)

I beg to ask the Secretary to the Treasury, as representing the Postmaster General, if, when examining into the circumstances in connection with the acceleration of the mail service to Roscrea, Nenagh, Birr, and districts, as promised, he will be pleased to take into consideration the proposal that these mail bags should be put out from the morning mail at Ballybrophy Junction, and sent on by goods train leaving there, on the ground that such an arrangement if carried out would answer all the purposes required for the places in question; and if the Railway Company will be requested to make this arrangement?

MR. HANBURY

The Postmaster General will take into consideration the proposal referred to by the hon. Member, and a communication on the subject shall be made to the Railway Company.
