HL Deb 02 February 2004 vol 656 c77WA
Lord Taylor of Warwick

asked Her Majesty's Government:

When Postcomm intends to conclude its investigation into whether the Royal Mail should continue to be VAT exempt. [HL773]

Lord Sainsbury of Turville

This is a matter for Postcomm. I am aware however that Postcomm recently published a consultation document that examines the special privileges enjoyed by Royal Mail including VAT. I understand more information is available on its website: http://www.postcomm.gov.uk and that the deadline for responses is 12 April 2004.
