Early Day Motion EDM 428 ROYAL MAIL- 184 SIGNATURES

[The FraudSquad]

My MP hasnt even bothered to reply........is there anyway that i can bring him to task on this ? Its out of order that he has simply ignored me

[andy2007]

Just turn up at his next surgery. It's a lot harder to ignore you, if you're right there in the room with him. But I don't know what (if anything) you can do if that fails.

EDM 428

ROYAL MAIL
13.01.2009


Smith, Geraldine

That this House notes that the Labour Party Conference 2008, with the backing of Ministers, supported a vision of a wholly publicly-owned, integrated Royal Mail Group; welcomes the conclusion of the Hooper Report that the current universal service obligation offered by Royal Mail, including six days a week delivery, must be protected and that the primary duty of a new regulator should be to maintain it; further welcomes the recommendations in the Report that the Government should take responsibility for the pensions deficit which followed an extended contributions holiday; endorses the call for a new relationship between management and postal unions and welcomes the commitment of the Communication Workers Union to negotiate an agreement which would support the modernisation of the industry; observes that in 2007 the Government agreed to a £1.2 billion loan facility on commercial terms to modernise Royal Mail operations; rejects the recommendation of the Hooper Report to sell a minority stake in Royal Mail which would risk fracturing one of Britain's greatest public services; further notes that the Government is currently advertising for a new Chair of Royal Mail; and urges the Secretary of State to appoint a Chair and management team who are committed to the principles of a modern public enterprise.

I'm still annoyed that none of the DUP/UUP have bothered to sign the EDM (although the DUP are signing the MC closure one even though we only have one MC over here).

[bexhil palace]

Our MP (nice boy) feels that outside investment,and their experience would be an asset to RM.
Perhaps 350 years of delivering mail is not experience enough.

[heston]

i have emailed russel brown the labour mp for dumfrieshire,got an email back from his press secratary,he will be in touch with me shortly,post his reply soon

[Barry Trotter]

I had to contact David Hamilton on two occasions with regards to this EDM but he has now signed and sent a letter out saying he fully intended signing and thanks for reminding him. As far as I'm aware the CWU political officer in my workplace still hasnt got his finger out of the doms arse and done anything about contacting other mp's in the area.
