The Cork mail centre will close. It is a valuable property. Is it An Post's intention to rent or sell it? What price might it expect to receive? Is this issue being actively pursued? There is a flipside to that question. I understand the growth of the parcel business has meant that there will be a parcel hub in 2022 or 2023. The delegates might clarify the position in that regard. Presumably, it would be an opportunity to rehire postal workers. If someone in the Cork mail centre was to apply for a job in the new parcel hub, can the representatives of An Post guarantee that they would at least have equivalent wages and conditions, or would they be employed on lower wages and conditions?
