This is a question for An Post. If 40% of existing post offices close, is there any onus on An Post to deliver the service if it cannot get a local contractor to take it on or to co-locate with another service? That is the difficulty, for instance, in Bluebell and in that vicinity. No other contractor or shop is willing to take on what they see as an onerous task.
