HC Deb 22 June 1967 vol 748 cc319-20W

57. Mr. Hiley

asked the Postmaster-General what functions the Post Office Users' Council will have when the reorganisation of the Post Office is completed.

The functions of the Post Office Users' Council will be defined in the legislation establishing the Post Office as a Corporation. The Government intends that the Corporation will be required to consult the Council about all major proposals affecting its main services, in so far as these affect users.
