There were post offices closed in my area and many people were very concerned about that. The pity was that the locals were not using them. Perhaps this committee and the Department should examine, in the new year, ways of putting a campaign together to encourage people to use local post offices. If we do not use them, we lose them. We certainly need people to be able to use them.
