§ 49. Mr. Stratton Millsasked the Postmaster-General if he will make a statement on the progress being made by McKinseys, the consultants advising the Post Office.
§ Mr. Edward ShortI expect their review of the postal services to be completed by next spring. Following my announcement on 3rd August last of the Government's decision to convert the Post Office into a public corporation I have asked McKinseys to make a fundamental examination of our organisation and management practices. This should also be completed by next spring.
