This morning, the issue of the post office contract was raised. I would like clarification on this because it is very important. Will the Tánaiste confirm that the deal post offices have been offered is to buy out the old contract and that if a postmaster accepts that offer, there is nothing to preclude a new contract being offered in respect of the same post office at the same location but with a different proprietor involved?
