§ MR. PATRICK O'BRIEN (Kilkenny)To ask the Postmaster-General if it has been brought within his knowledge that considerable discontent exists at the Glasgow post office as a consequence of the methods by which promotions are made at that office; if he has received several protests from the aggrieved officers; and if he will investigate the alleged favouritism in the recent promotion of two junior assistant inspectors of postmen over the heads of senior officers, several of whom the local postmaster admitted were thoroughly qualified.
(Answered by Mr. Sydney Buxton.) I have inquired into and have answered the representations to which the hon. Member refers.
