Spare capacity has been bought in the past. A place in Midleton was leased for a period at Christmas time because there was inadequate capacity available. The delegation has stated there will be a need for additional capacity, but there was capacity available at a location. I find it hard to understand the rationale behind renovating the centre in Ballincollig, north Lee, south Lee and the south city or whatever it is called when there was a place available in Little Iisland that was owned by An Post, in which parcels were sorted. I do not understand why the work could not have been reoriented towards distribution.
