§ MR. A. ROCHEI beg to ask the Postmaster-General whether, with a view to ascertaining the numerical sufficiency or otherwise of the telegraph staff at Cork, he will grant a Return of the waits recorded in that office as having been given to officers in communication with it during the month of June, 1906; and whether, pending such Return, the contemplated reduction of the Cork operative staff will be deferred.
§ MR. SYDNEY BUXTONThe question of the amount of force required in the telegraph department of the Cork office is now under consideration, and the point mentioned by the hon. Member will be looked into in connection therewith; but I do not think that any advantage will be gained by such a Return as that asked for by the hon. Member.
