PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
(17 December 2025)

To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, what assessment has been made of potential differences in postal service performance between urban and rural areas within Newbury constituency.

Asked by:
Mr Lee Dillon (Liberal Democrat)

The government does not collect or hold this information. Ofcom, as the independent regulator of postal services, has a duty to secure the provision of a financially sustainable and efficient universal postal service. It monitors Royal Mail’s provision of the universal service and has powers to investigate and take enforcement action if Royal Mail fails to achieve its performance targets as appropriate, taking account of all relevant factors.
