Can one image the chaos that will arise from this increased footfall? The most vulnerable in society, the infirm, the disabled and the elderly will join the already lengthening queues. This is an outrage. I request the Minister for Social Protection to come to this House today to clarify the relationship of her Department with An Post. This is about the future of thousand of jobs throughout the country. Questions need to be asked and it is vital we have clarity on whether the Department is anxious to enter into any form of negotiation with An Post on what is perceived as excessive charges by An Post. I propose an amendment to the Order of Business.
