That is the crux of the matter. We all accept the reality that we need to sustain the post office network. That is not going to happen if we have the business model that is being offered to post offices the minute the transformation payment ceases. There needs to be an interim solution and beyond that, we need a PSO. What would need to be put in place to facilitate post offices in offering a wider array of services, including non-financial services? I am thinking here of the green hub offering, for example.
