HC Deb 29 March 1900 vol 81 c712
MR. MACALEESE (Monaghan, N.)

I beg to ask the Secretary to the Treasury as representing the Postmaster General whether numerous complaints have been made respecting the delivery of the mails in the Carrickroe sub-post district, county Monaghan; whether he is aware that discontent prevails with the practice of a three-day delivery in the week in some townlands, and only a two-day delivery in the week in other townlands as conveniently situated to the post office; and whether, to prevent such dissatisfaction, the Department will equalise the delivery over this sub-post district.

MR. HANBURY

As the hon. Member was informed in answer to his question of the 27th of October last, the latest returns of the correspondence for the Carrickroe district showed that the present arrangements for the delivery of letters were the best practicable. Further inquiry will however, now be made, and the question of affording an improved service will again be considered.
