Dear Royal Mail Group Limited,

Can you please tell me if an external company handles the transport audits of Royal Mail and Parcelforce and if so how much they are paid for this service

Yours faithfully

Kanji Caber

FOI, Royal Mail Group Limited

Dear Kanji

Thank you for your enquiry. Following the flotation of Royal Mail on the London Stock Exchange in October 2013, it is no longer subject to the Freedom of Information Act. Royal Mail was previously subject to the Act because it was wholly owned by the government. However, now that the government has sold its shares in Royal Mail, this is no longer the case. Therefore, we are no longer obliged to respond to requests for information under the terms of the FOI Act.

Detailed information about our business is also available from www.royalmailgroup.com.

Yours sincerely,
