I welcome what the Minister said, particularly about the proactive approach the Government is taking in addressing the issue across a range of Departments, encompassing central and local government. I am sure that as a result, it will be possible to provide services through the post office as a front office of government. That would be a very welcome development which I am sure would be welcomed by the Irish Postmasters Union and workers in post offices throughout the country. I appreciate the Minister's response.
