I am not aware of such communication.

The staff are very concerned. An Post's parcel responsibilities are expanding at a rapid rate. I understand that the ordinary sorting officers lower down the food chain, as it were, do not have the capacity to sort all the mail that comes from Portlaoise. Another smaller unit will probably have to be set up. Why can it not be set up in Little Island, thereby allowing the centre to retain some parcel responsibilities? The Minister and An Post should keep this centre open and save the jobs.
