§ MR. JOYCE (Limerick)I beg to ask the Postmaster-General, whether his attention has been called to the fact that the office of inspector of postmen at Limerick has been vacant since last July; and whether, seeing that there is a senior man of thirty years' service without an offence against him capable of filling the post, he will have the appointment made.
§ THE POSTMASTER-GENERAL (Mr. S. BUXTON,) Tower Hamlets, PoplarThe office of inspector of postmen at Limerick has been vacant since July last. 519 A senior postman is being tried on the duties, and the question of his appointment depends upon the manner in which he performs them. A report on the subject is to be made to me shortly.
