Age Action has sharply criticised the State’s intention to repeal the postal price cap “without consultation or discussion”.
Spokesman Justin Moran said: “The price has already increased twice in the last two years and many older people, who prefer to send letters and cards rather than emails, will be disappointed to hear another is on the way”.
Mr Moran went on to say that “our postal network needs to be supported and strengthened. This does mean additional resources are required but it always seems to be the customer who pays for it. We need a long-term plan, not a short-term price increase”.
