HC Deb 17 February 1902 vol 103 cc204-5
MR. JOYCE (Limerick)

I beg to ask the Secretary to the Treasury, as representing the Postmaster General, whether his attention has been drawn to a meeting of the Limerick Chamber of Commerce in which it was stated that the accommodation at the General Post Office, Limerick, was both bad and unhealthy; and whether he will cause an inquiry to be made in order to remedy any defects that may exist.

MR. AUSTEN CHAMBERLAIN

A newpaper report only of the meeting referred to has been seen. The Limerick Post Office is small, and is about to be enlarged; but there is no reason to suppose that it is unhealthy. Further inquiry will he made on the subject.

MR. JOYCE

When may we expect the enlargement to commence?

MR. AUSTEN CHAMBERLAIN

I cannot say.
