I move amendment No. 1:

In page 9, between lines 11 and 12, to insert the following:

" "inward mail centre" is the last centralised automated processing location prior to transmission to the distribution centre;".

The Minister did not accept this amendment on Committee Stage, which is the reason we have retabled on Report Stage. We seek to ensure post will be delivered to recipients rather than being taken from a centre and dropped in post offices. I am concerned that An Post and other postal services will cherrypick the easy options.

That is why we are specifically tabling this amendment, which would insert "inward mail centre". I hope the Minister will support the amendment.
