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

Anne Rabbitte: I welcome the opportunity to outline the position on this matter on behalf of the Minister, Deputy Eamon Ryan, and the Minister of State, Deputy Chambers. They are both very aware of the impact that decisions relating to changes in An Post operations have on communities and individuals in both rural and urban areas. An Post is a commercial State company with a mandate to act commercially...

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...

Anne Rabbitte: I thank the Deputy for raising this important matter. As I said, I am taking it on behalf of the Minister, Deputy Ryan.

Chris Andrews: I thank the Minister of State, Deputy Anne Rabbitte. An Post is planning on selling off its beautiful art deco building which has been the home of Rathmines post office for almost 90 years and is an iconic building in the heart of Rathmines. In one fell swoop, the actions of An Post will mean that this building will be lost to the Rathmines community and An Post will privatise the postal...

Search Tips

  • KildareStreet search is case-insensitive, and tries to match all the search terms within a document.
  • To exclude a word from your search, put a minus ("-") sign in front, for example to find documents containing the word "representation" but not the word "taxation":
    representation -taxation
  • To search for an exact phrase, use quotes (""). For example to find only documents contain the exact phrase "Mahon Tribunal":
    "mahon tribunal"
  • If you want to search for words only when they're used near each other in the text, use "NEAR". For example, to find documents containing the word "elephant" near the word "room":
    elephant NEAR room
  • If the search phrase matches (part of) a TD or Senator's name, their own page will appear as the top result, but will also search speeches made by them too.
  • From a person's page, you have the option to search only their speeches.
  • Advanced Users: You can perform boolean searches, with brackets, AND, OR, and XOR. There are many prefixes you can use directly instead of the advanced search form, here's a selection:
    • party:Lab
    • department:Defence
    • section:seanad OR section:wrans
    • section:debates
    • section:committees
    • date:20120918
    • 20080101..20080131
