§ MR. NANNETTI (Dublin, College Green)To ask the Postmaster-General if he is aware that, when on his defence in the Corcoran defalcation case some years ago, the controller of the Dublin sorting office stated that he had not a man on his staff capable of filling the higher positions in his office; and will he lay upon the Table of the House any statements then made by the controller which were reflecting upon the staff under his charge, and which may still be operating against their chances of advancement or promotion.
(Answered by Mr. Sydney Buxton.) The Reports and statements in the Corcoran case were fully considered at the time, and I can see no good purpose in reopening the matter after a lapse of five years.
