- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Future of the An Post Network: Discussion (Resumed) (1 Jun 2022)
Kieran O'Donnell: The big issue, as the Minister of State will be aware, is that the pandemic payment finishes at the end of the year.

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Future of the An Post Network: Discussion (Resumed) (1 Jun 2022)
Kieran O'Donnell: It was a constructive and productive meeting. There are a number of factors and we would ask the Minister of State to follow up on that.
