HC Deb 12 February 1920 vol 125 cc234-5W
Major M ALONE

asked the Postmaster-General if he will cause inquiry to be made with a view to improve the postal service in the West of Ireland, which is at present in a very backward condition?

Mr. PEASE

The postal service in the West of Ireland is administered in the same manner, and is subject to the same standards, as in the rest of the United Kingdom, except that it benefits by the somewhat more generous treatment accorded to remote and sparsely inhabited districts. If the hon. and gallant Member will communicate with me as regards any specific places which he has in mind, I shall be happy to cause inquiry to be made.
