HC Deb 17 December 1992 vol 216 c468W
Mr. Dykes

To ask the President of the Board of Trade what proposals he has to allow the Royal Mail to carry items through the post under 5kg in weight, exempted from the distance selling arrangements for value added tax; and what effect he estimates this would have on intra-Community trade.

Mr. Leigh

I have no plans to vary the range of products that may be carried by the Royal Mail, or the conditions under which such products may be carried.
