§ 88. Mr. JOYCEasked the Postmaster-General whether his attention has been called to a resolution of the county borough council of Limerick, calling attention to the want of increased telegraphic facilities in the city of Limerick and asking that those facilities should be increased; whether he is aware that there are only four telegraphic offices in the city outside of the general post office; and whether he will consider the advisability of providing an increase of at least four offices, thus giving one to each of the eight wards in. the city?
§ Mr. HERBERT SAMUELMy attention, has been drawn to the resolution in question. It has been necessary to call for returns of telegraphic traffic at various local centres, and they are not yet complete. I will inform the hon. Member of the result of the inquiry as soon as possible.
