As a Minister in the Department of the Environment, Climate and Communications I have responsibility for the postal sector, including the governance of An Post, to ensure the company is fully compliant with the code of practice for the Governance of State Bodies and the governance functions included in the statutory framework underpinning An Post.

Operational matters and the role of developing commercial strategies for mail delivery service is a matter for the Board and the management of An Post and not one in which I, as Minister, have a statutory function. Consequently, the mails delivery service is a matter for An Post.
