Freight body: Department made untrue Eircode claims
The accusation comes as the European Commission issued a preliminary ruling in which it stated that it does not believe Eircode confers an unfair advantage to An Post, following a complaint by the Freight Transport Association of Ireland.
The FTAI claimed An Post was the only delivery operator consulted during Eircode’s design phase, and that as a result of Eircode being a ‘random’ postcode, competitors will not be able to generate efficient delivery routes. The FTAI is to appeal the preliminary finding.
