Free Post Office from government shackles

Businessman backs corporatisation

The businessman who twice chaired teams which considered the scope and structure of government says he welcomes moves to make the Post Office more commercially driven.

Plans to corporatise the organisation go before Tynwald in 11 days time.

MHK Graham Cregeen last week lost his job as Post Office chairman for failing to support the plans.

Former clerk of Tynwald Robert Quayle, who chaired the body which recommended restructuring proposals, says the post office needs to be freed from the shackles of government.
