Proceeding contribution from Geraldine Smith (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 16 December 2008. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Royal Mail.
Royal Mail
Does the Minister not recognise that most of the current financial difficulties facing Royal Mail stem from the postal regulator exposing it to unfair competition, allowing the vultures to pick clean the most profitable parts of the business? Does he not accept that the many years of contributions holidays taken by Royal Mail have played a major part in the build up of the pensions deficit that it now faces?
