§ Mr. BAKERasked the Postmaster-General if he will furnish a statement showing the rank, number of each rank, and scale of salary of all persons on the establishment in the office of the Northern Ireland surveyor's district prior to the constitution of the Irish Free State, as compared with the establishment in the survey branch, Belfast, for the six-county area; and from which offices the members of the staff in the survey branch at Belfast have been recruited?
§ Mr. HARTSHORNThe Northern Ireland surveyor's district was abolished as a separate unit some time before the constitution of the Irish Free State; so that the comparison which the hon. Member desires to make will be subject to qualification. I will, however, send him the statement which he asks for.
