Statement from Chairperson of An Post

25 November 2004

“The Board has considered issues, raised by the Communication Workers Union (CWU), in relation to the decision taken last July to integrate the SDS business into core An Post operations.


Following detailed discussion on the matter, the Board concluded that the basis for its decision was sound and that the implementation of the decision must continue in accordance with the timescale set at its July meeting.


The Board welcomed the agreement reached between the company and the CWU on the Christmas mail arrangements, which was concluded at the Labour Relations Commission last Friday, and urged all concerned to ensure that customers received a first class service.


I believe that the conclusion of this agreement augurs well for the resolution of the other issues currently in the industrial relations arena, most importantly the Change Programme. This programme has been the subject of a process conducted by the LRC since last April and it is vital for the future of the company that it is finalised, through the Labour Court if necessary, without delay.”
