§ MR. JOYCE (Limerick)I beg to ask the Postmaster-General if he has received an appeal from certain telegraphists at Limerick, against the refusal of the Department to grant them the dual increment for postal knowledge on the ground that they were appointed at amalgamated offices; and whether, seeing that in instances of a similar character the increment has been granted, he will consider the advisability of acceding to this appeal.
§ MR. AUSTEN CHAMBERLAINI am making enquiry and will inform the hon. Member of the result.
