Categorised under the topics of Postal services and Service industries.

That this House notes the interim report of the Independent Review of the UK Postal Sector that liberalisation has been of no benefit to small and medium-sized businesses or residential customers and that the substantial threat to Royal Mail's financial security has threatened the universal service; believes that the universal service and universal tariff are essential to the future of the postal service; and calls on the Government to give a categorical assurance that it will not allow any action to be taken to undermine the universal service and tariff.

This motion has been signed by a total of 40 MPs.
