Postal Services Bill

I thank the Minister for her positive remarks. I am certainly interested in seeing Co-operatives UK’s report because that will obviously help us to progress this debate. I have little further to say. There are dangers in not specifying a little more what the Government really want out of mutualisation, but I accept that it is early days and that there is plenty of time for that. I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment 22ZE withdrawn. Amendment 22ZF not moved. Clause 7 agreed. Clause 8 : Transfer schemes Clause 8 : Transfer schemes Amendment 22ZG not moved. Clause 8 agreed. Schedule 1 agreed. Clauses 9 and 10 agreed. Amendment 22A Moved by
