It explains the study background, methodology, and the current situation from both market and legal perspectives. The report identifies vulnerable user groups and underlying reasons using input from NRAs, operators, and other relevant entities, then details postal needs and the expected outcomes from an external workshop. Country cases and reflections inform targeted recommendations.","ERGP REPORT ON THE POSTAL SERVICE NEEDS  \nOF VULNERABLE USERS  \n29 November 2024  \nTable of Contents  \n1 INTRODUCTION
