§ MR. J. F. X. O'BRIEN (Cork)To ask the Postmaster-General whether he will state what was the date of the last general revision of the duties of the outdoor postmen at Cork, and at what intervals revisions usually take place; so a revision now proceeding; and if so, when is it expected to become operative.
(Answered by Mr. Austen Chamberlain.) A scheme for the revision of the outdoor force at Cork is now under consideration; the last revision took place in 1894, and a fresh revision should have been undertaken earlier. I had drawn attention to the oversight before this notice appeared upon the Paper.
