This is the list of documents available for the submission By Councillor Matt Kerr:- "Council is greatly concerned by government plans to privatise Royal Mail and believes that any income generated in the short term by the sale of this public service will be outstripped by additional future costs to customers and risks transforming a self-sufficient, profitable service into an organisation unable to maintain the Universal Service Obligation across the United Kingdom without significant public subsidy. Council rejects the premise that private capital is required to sustain the Royal Mail and believes the current government proposals represent an appallingly poor deal for the owners of Royal Mail - the people. Therefore, Council instructs the Chief Executive to write to the Business Secretary, Vince Cable MP, to outline this Council's opposition to the government's current plans, and to request that they be reconsidered in light of the huge risks involved and widespread public opposition to the privatisation of Royal Mail.".
