§ MR. T. M. HEALY (Louth, N.)I beg to ask the Postmaster General if his attention has been called to an advertisement in the Belfast News Letter of 13th September for a young lady (Presbyterian) to take full charge of telegraph (sounder instrument) and postal duties at Leenane, county Galway, will he say whether it is the rule of the Department that religious tests are not to be applied; and can he say what is the proportion of Presbyterians to Roman Catholics in the village in question.
§ THE POSTMASTER GENERAL (Mr. AUSTEN CHAMBERLAIN, Worcestershire, E.)My attention was not called to the advertisement in question till I saw the hon. and learned Member's Question. I am making inquiry on the subject, and will communicate the result to the hon. Member.
