Proceeding contribution from Lord Hunt of Wirral (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 20 April 2009. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Postal Services Bill [HL].

Postal Services Bill [HL]

I am sure that the Minister is about to deal with my question, which could help to shorten some of the debates not only on this issue but on others: do the Government intend to respond to the very detailed report by the Business and Enterprise Select Committee? The report raises a whole series of questions not only in this area, which the Minister has dealt with in part, but elsewhere. It would be of great assistance if he could reassure the Committee that the Government intend to respond in detail, certainly in the next month. Any advance information would be very useful to your Lordships in dealing with a whole series of issues that we have still to debate.
