HC Deb 17 July 1990 vol 176 c486W
Mr. John Marshall

To ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry what response he proposes to make to the latest report by Post Office Users National Council and if he will review the Post Office monopoly as it may be affected by its recommendations.

Mr. Forth

I have noted with interest the comments contained in the annual report of the Post Office Users National Council and I have written to the chairman thanking him for the valuable work done by POUNC on behalf of all postal users. The Post Office's letter monopoly is kept under review, but no decisions have been taken.
