Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Postal Services (25 Apr 2024)

Chris Andrews: We often talk about a 15-minute city, but this model of An Post postal service delivery will not lend itself to a 15-minute city. People will have to travel significantly longer to reach the local post office. One example, as I mentioned earlier, was when Kevin Street post office closed. Residents have quite a distance to go now to reach the nearest post office, and at an older age it...

Chris Andrews: It is just a brief observation on Deputy Boyd Barrett's proposal to take out the word "undue". The Minister mentioned the segregation and said he does not believe it occurs.

I could give a list of names of...
