Bradfield electorate: Post Offices

Mr Fletcher asked:

In light of the recent decision by Australia Post to close Turramurra Post Office in the electorate of Bradfield, what assurance can the Minister provide that Australia Post has no plans to close any further Post Offices in the Bradfield electorate?

Mr Albanese responded:

1)      Australia Post constantly monitors its network of more than 4,000 outlets for changes to customer numbers, local community/business needs and leasing agreements to ensure the network matches demand.

2)      There are no definitive plans at this stage to close any outlets in the electorate of Bradfield. Australia Post understands the importance of ensuring that communities have access to local postal services and commits to keeping customers and all other stakeholders fully informed when it is considering any changes.
