Tynwald members raise concerns about posts being closed
The chair of the Isle of Man Post Office has refused to commit to re-advertising the roles of sub-postmasters in the future.
Julie Edge MHK was responding to questions from Tim Baker - a member of the Economic Policy Review Committee which has scrutinised the work of the post office board.
Mr Baker, and other Tynwald members, have raised concerns about the posts being closed after a retirement or resignation.
