Services in Rural Ireland being left to wither and die as Government facilitates closure of hundreds of post offices according to Clare TD Timmy Dooley.

The Minister for Communications and An Post must come clean with the Irish public and outline their plans for the future of the national post office network.

The Government must finally wake up to the impending dismantling of the post office network though the mass closure of post offices, and come forward with a comprehensive plan for the network.

As members of the Irish Postmasters' Union prepare to hold a protest outside the GPO in Dublin today, Clare TD and Fianna Fáil Spokesperson on Communications Timmy Dooley says he’s becoming increasingly concerned about plans for the future of post office services in Ireland.

Proposed stamp price increases, cannot be seen as a solution to the financial challenges facing An Post, and the postal network in general according to Timmy Dooley.
