Submission Documents: By Councillor Matt Kerr:- "Council is greatly concerned by the government's rushed and shambolic privatisation of the Royal Mail. Council further 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.

Therefore, Council calls for a public inquiry into the mishandling of this process and the gross undervaluation of the Royal Mail. Help Icon
