Estonian Post is allowed to decrease number of post offices to 419
Competition Board decided that the minimum number of post offices used for providing universal postal service will be decreased to 419, writes the National Broadcasting.
Estonian Post requested that the minimum required number be cut from 495 to 400.
The enterprise justified its application with the possibility to ensure providing service according to standards by using alternative options, hence, according to the opinion of the enterprise, there is no need for a stationary postal office in areas with low population density.
AS Eesti Post will ensure provision of service with postal delivery staff who collect and deliver post in the place of residence or of business of service users.
The Competition Board did not agree to allow decreasing number of post offices in four rural municipalities where the cut was not allowed due to the number of residence in these local government units.
