HC Deb 25 February 1907 vol 169 c1271
MR. VINCENT KENNEDY

I beg to ask the Postmaster-General whether he is aware that there is only a temporary post office at Dernacrieve, Belturbet, county Cavan; is it his intention to establish a permanent post office in this district; where is the present post office situate; is it furnished with the usual letter-box, etc.; and will the convenience and comfort of the people residing in this locality be considered in any contemplated changes.

MR. SYDNEY BUXTON

I am aware that at present the post office at Dernacrieve is in charge of a temporary sub-postmistress; but a permanent appointment will be made very shortly; and the convenience of the inhabitants of the district will, of course, be considered. The temporary premises, which are situated about 500 yards from the old office, are reported to be convenient for the people generally. Pending a permanent appointment no letter-box has been fixed as it was undesirable to put the temporary sub-postmistress to any expense.
