HC Deb 11 December 1989 vol 163 c460W
Mr. Wigley

To ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry whose approval was required for the Post Office to revise their scale of surcharges for understamped mail; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Forth

Decisions on the level of postal tariffs, including surcharges, are a matter for the Post Office. However, the Post Office is required to consult the Post Office Users National Council before making changes.
