UK Postcomm consults on change to Mail Plus licence
Postcomm today (3 June 2005) issued a consultation notice proposing a change to the postal services licence held by Mail Plus Limited.
The company has requested the change, which would enable it to provide mailroom services for customers. In practice, this means it could carry mail within and between customers’ premises, and also transport it to or from other licensed operators’ premises.
Mail Plus was granted its existing licence on 17 February 2005. That enables it to handle bulk mailings of over 4,000 items, and to “consolidate” mail (collect it from a variety of customer locations, then sort it, ready to be passed back to Royal Mail for delivery).
The consultation document is available on Postcomm’s website at www.psc.gov.uk. Printed copies are available from Postcomm at 6 Hercules Road, London SE1 7DB.
Responses are requested by 3 July 2005.
