Proceeding contribution from Michael Connarty (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 27 October 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Postal Services Bill.
Postal Services Bill
Is my right hon. Friend aware that in previous discussions about possible privatisations, no interest was expressed by any of the companies, either in the UK or abroad, in running mail services? Are we not likely to have a situation in which, basically, some equity finance company will borrow large amounts of money to buy Royal Mail and then load it up with masses of debt? There is no operator challenging Royal Mail's ability to deliver the services that it currently delivers.
