The Print & Visual Communication Association (PVCA) has confirmed that it is awaiting response from the government regarding its recommendations for the modernisation of the Australian postal service.

Building a Mail Industry Coalition with some 30 mail businesses, the submission was an industry voice across all Business Mail products.

“In April the PVCA submitted our position across the opportunities for the modernisation of the postal service across Australia. We await response from the Minister and Department across this consultation. Our suggestions and considerations included in our submission into the consultation were developed over many weeks and discussed with the Mail Industry Coalition. The Coalition included some 30 businesses across the sector and provided significant insights into how Australia Post could gain operational efficiencies, engage with meaning with industry stakeholders and promote the business mail sector for customer insights and ongoing investment,” PVCA CEO Kellie Northwood said.
 
“The latest results from Australia Post reflect reforms are needed and we urge the government to provide responsive support to the postal service consultation and allow Australia Post, Industry and Stakeholders to develop a progressive strategy for a strong sustainable letter business well into the future”.
