HC Deb 07 July 1899 vol 74 c177
MR. MACALEESE (Monaghan, N.)

I beg to ask the Secretary to the Treasury, as representing the Postmaster-General, will he state the name of the gentleman who has been promoted to the postmaster-ship of Dundalk and the name of the office he has been promoted from; whether he can say if the vacancy created by the removal has been filled up, and by whom; and how many applications were sent in for this vacancy.

MR. HANBURY

Mr. Robert Swale has been promoted from the Postmaster-ship of Coleraine to that of Dundalk. The vacancy at Coleraine has not yet been filled up. It may be necessary to revise the salary for the incoming Postmaster of Coleraine, and candidates have not yet been invited to apply.
