172. Deputy Caoimhghín Ó Caoláin asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Social Protection her plans to withdraw and redraft her Department's new forms that encourage persons on social protection payments, now or in the future, to move from accessing their payments through the post office network to direct payment to a bank account; if she accepts the legitimate concern not only of those represented by the Irish Postmasters' Union but by elected and community voices, especially in rural areas, at the potential negative impact of this encouragement on the viability of many rural post offices; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
