Post Office Courtesy (Ireland).

HC Deb 17 August 1909 vol 9 cc1350-1W

Mr. NANNETTI

asked the Postmaster-General if he can state the number of complaints made by the public as regards incivility by the staff at the post office counters throughout Ireland; and how many of these, on inquiry, were found to be justified?

Mr. SYDNEY BUXTON

I am glad to think it is generally admitted that the large majority of the staff in Ireland, as well as elsewhere, act with courtesy and consideration towards the public. No advantage would be gained by compiling the information asked for.
