There have been some improvements in Royal Mail deliveries recently, but in certain areas of the constituency the service remains dire, so this week I met with the Minister Kevin Hollinrake MP.
I repeated that all constituents should receive deliveries 6 days per week, and asked what action was being taken to achieve this.
Minister Hollinrake explained that he had recently met with Martin Seidenberg, CEO of Royal Mail PLC. They discussed performance since, as a private company, Royal Mail’s operation of its products and services, including measures to improve performance, is a matter for the company’s management.
The Minister also agreed to write to Mr Seidenberg to bring his attention to the particular issues being experienced locally.
I will now meet Royal Mail’s Regional Operational Director to follow-up on improvements he outlined Royal Mail were making locally in our meeting in February - and will share an update as soon as I have one.
