Dairy Farming — Clause 79 — Guarantees where postal administration order is made — 12 Jan 2011 at 19:00
Nick Herbert MP, Arundel and South Downs voted with the majority (Aye).
I beg to move, That the Bill be now read the Third time.
We have had an excellent debate on the Bill, not just today but throughout its passage through the House. Hon. Members have rightly spent a lot of time scrutinising the detail of our proposals, but I would ask all of them to stand back and remember what we are trying to achieve. We are trying to preserve two great British institutions-the Royal Mail and the Post Office. As we heard from Richard Hooper in his reports, both to the previous Government and to this one, unless we take urgent action, the future of the universal postal service is at severe risk.
The House divided: Ayes 319, Noes 238.
