Cork mail centre on brink of closure make plea to Minister Bruton

Communications Minister Richard Bruton received correspondence pleading for the retention of An Post’s mail centre in Cork — but not on behalf of any of the others threatened with closure.
While June’s announcement that the Little Island facility is to shut with the loss of more than 200 jobs was met with anger and allegations that Cork representatives did little to prevent the closure, the
can reveal that Mr Bruton did not receive any correspondences regarding the other mail centres that had been considered for the axe.
