Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:
To ask Her Majesty's Government how many communities in the UK do not receive a daily postal delivery.
This information is not held centrally.
The Postal Services Act 2011 sets the minimum service level requirements – a 6 days a week letter delivery service to every UK address.
Ofcom, as the independent regulator, monitors the delivery of service standards. Its assessments of postal services have been published annually on its website since 2011-12.
