125. To ask the Minister for Communications, Energy and Natural Resources his plans to ensure the future prosperity and sustainability of the post office network; the reason a post office (details supplied) in County Cork recently closed; the alternative arrangements that have been put in place for pensioners and other claimants who used the now closed post office; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

In relation to the question of the future of the post office network, I refer to the reply to Priority Question No. 1 on 11 March 2014. The position is unchanged. The issue of post office closures is an operational matter for the board and management of An Post and one in which I have no statutory function. I have asked An Post to respond directly to the Deputy on this matter.
