HC Deb 15 August 1911 vol 29 c1890W
Mr. LUNDON

asked the Postmaster-General why the mails are now despatched from Bruree, county Limerick, on Sundays about twelve o'clock noon, whereas for the past fifty years they were not despatched until 3.30 o'clock p.m; whether these mails are not despatched from the head office of the district, namely, Kilmallock, which is only three miles distant, until about 10 o'clock p.m.; and whether, to convenience the public of the district, he will direct that the time for despatch from Bruree be as formerly?

Mr. HERBERT SAMUEL

I would refer the hon. Member to my answer to a question on the same subject by the hon. Member for Limerick West, on the 9th instant.

Mr. LUNDON

also asked the Postmaster-General whether certain members of the Limerick County Hunt Club have made repeated charges against certain post office officials in county Limerick within the past three years; whether those charges were found to be without any foundation; and, in view of such complaints and allegation, will instructions be issued to the Irish Secretary to furnish those aggrieved parties with the charges made against them, so that they may be in a position to justify themselves publicly?

Mr. HERBERT SAMUEL

I must refer the hon. Member to the reply which I gave to him in this matter on the 31st ultimo.
