Proceeding contribution from Albert Owen (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 11 February 2009. It occurred during Opposition day on Royal Mail.
Royal Mail
I am grateful to my right hon. Friend for giving way on that important point about new technology. Is he a little surprised, as I am, that the shadow Business Secretary seems not to have been to a sorting office since he was in charge? When I go, I see an increased volume of parcels. It is new technology such as eBay that is allowing that extra business. The Post Office, when given the opportunity, can deliver a good service.
