SYDNEY, Dec 6 (Reuters) - Australia Post will soon end daily letter deliveries as part of a series of postal reforms announced on Wednesday designed to modernise the government-owned postal service and help it turn a profit.
Letters will only be delivered every second business day for 98% of locations, although parcel delivery would continue daily. Australia Post will also have an extra day to deliver regular mail.
The changes announced jointly by the communications and finance ministers, have been trialled and will roll out over the next 12 months along with other reforms like increasing the number of parcel collection points.

Like others who have been invested here from the outset I take "the rough with the smooth" but have no doubt we are heading North.
Hopefully management and staff have taken note of the problems created when they back themselves into corners.
Of course reinstatement of dividends etc will be the catalyst that lights the way forward.
Isle, "no medals are needed. I'm not going to steal time from RM"
Your original post was ambiguous regarding the length of coffee break and as you only had ten minutes from arrival to start, I thought some clarification was in order.
Sid "Is the performance linked to the share price"
Can't be the case Sid. I imagine it's got to be their performance of "auld lang syne" at the New Year office party.
Can't see any evidence of note worthy job performance from either staff or management in many years of being a shareholder.
Free shares awarded for outstanding performance 🤣🤣
Following achievement of performance conditions for the Company over the course of the last three years, Mark Amsden and Mick Jeavons received the requisite number of shares,
Isle, "Not me though. I was in 10 minutes early. Had a coffee, then cracked on"
:-)) give that man a medal. Please don't ruin the elation by saying "hot coffee took ages to drink" ;-)
In case your too busy to turn up here HAPPY CHRISTMAS, ISLE
Sid. The picture painted is exactly as many here believed. The "old guard" have created a cushy number for themselves. The comparison with Amazon is presumably why one member here left Amazon to join RMG. Good to hear management are taking back control in the new hubs.
Interesting article Sid.
Talk of renationalisation prompts the question "do the government want the hassle of more pay negotiations etc.
I am assuming fines received by Ofcom end up in the treasury coffers, nice little earner?
Far nicer day, read the messages and ignored the :-
"This message has been filtered."
Looks like LSE doesn't stop the trolling but we can choose not to read. Seems like many more are of the same opinion.
Now it's witch off time.
Oli, There was what appeared to be a genuine threat of legal action based on what most of us have experienced from AngerShark-TMS. Seriously made and sufficient to cause for the immediate closure of the account.
As stated I was prepared to give TMS a chance and initially had no regrets. However as we can all see the filth has increased in time and now being gloated over with a promise of more to come.
There are plenty of ways to be disgusted with the actions of others. Thankfully in this case it's easily resolved with FILTERED.
