§ MR. NANNETTITo ask the Postmaster General if he will state when it is intended to fill the vacancies existing in the supervising clerks and assistant superintendents' class in the Dublin sorting office; whether selections will be made from members of the Dublin staff; and if a circular has been issued to surveyors inviting applications for the positions from provincial officers.
(Answered by Hr. Austen Chamberlain.) The question of filling the vacancies referred to is under consideration, and I hope that it will be settled very shortly. The claims of members of the Dublin staff to promotion will have the fullest consideration. No such circular as the hon. Member described has been issued.
