Postal Services: Fraud

Volume 479: debated on Monday 21 July 2008

To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Enterprise and Regulatory Reform how many cases of fraudulently redirected mail the Royal Mail discovered in each of the last three years for which figures are available; what steps Royal Mail is taking to counter this practice; and if he will make a statement. (218372)

[holding answer 14 July 2008]: This is an operational matter for which Royal Mail has direct responsibility. I have therefore asked the chief executive of Royal Mail, Adam Crozier, to provide a direct reply to the hon. Member.

A copy of the response will be placed in the Libraries of the House.
