ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON MONDAY 24th OCTOBER 2022

Question

Would the Minister, as shareholder representative, indicate if there are any plans for Jersey Post to follow the Royal Mail in introducing barcodes on stamps and whether a surcharge for non-barcode stamps is anticipated?

Answer

I have been advised by Jersey Post that they have no current plans to introduce barcodes on stamps for outbound mail and accordingly there would be no surcharge for non-barcode stamps.
