Minister Alex White again defends €38m Eircode system
An Post yesterday told RTÉ it believed that Eircode was in “single-digit usage in percentage terms”, however a spokesperson for the postal service said that it was not monitoring usage and that the figure it has provided is an estimate.
Speaking yesterday with Seán O’Rourke on RTÉ Radio 1, Mr White conceded that integrating the postcode system with Google Maps and satellite navigation systems “didn’t happen quickly enough”, but he said he was confident use would increase with increased functionality.
