Mr. David McRedmond:

As a principle, we, in An Post, want to support postmasters every bit of the way as far as possible. We want to pay them as much as we can pay them. We have an obligation to be self-funding and commercial, and we have to do that. We also have a public service obligation which we completely believe in and believe in every day. There is no intention within An Post other than to get postmasters as much as we can for the business and to increase the business so there is no difference there.
