Proceeding contribution from Baroness Wheatcroft (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 6 April 2011. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Postal Services Bill.


Postal Services Bill

My Lords, I thank the Minister for his response. I am to some extent relieved to know that nothing other than minor changes will be possible under the legislation. However, I share the concerns of my noble friend Lord Eccles that regulatory creep is something that we need to be eternally vigilant about, so I trust that this will continue. On Amendment 30, I was delighted to hear my noble friend say that this is already under consideration, and I look forward to seeing how that progresses. I am more than happy to withdraw the amendment. Amendment 25C withdrawn. Schedule 9 agreed. Clauses 65 and 66 agreed. Clause 67 : Objective of a postal administration Amendment 25D Clause 67 : Objective of a postal administration Amendment 25D Moved by
