In regard to the budget for ComReg, is it possible to state how much it costs to run the office each year? How many staff does it have? Are bonuses paid to executives? How much has ComReg spent so far in taking the legal case against An Post? What are the anticipated costs associated with this case when it goes to the Supreme Court? Why is ComReg not agreeing a level measurement of service with An Post? Why is there no accountability as to how it comes up with its measurement system? Why is there complete duplication, with An Post having to pay on the double? It is paying for its own measurement system and it is paying through the levy which ComReg charges it. Why can that not be agreed on? When does ComReg expect it will make a decision on the price increase request An Post has made? Why does the process seem to take so long to go through?
