TNT to keep post monopoly
Post firm TNT will keep its monopoly on delivering letters weighing under 50 grammes for the time being, NOS tv reports on Friday.
Junior economic affairs minister Frank Heemskerk said steps are being made towards making full liberalisation possible.
For example, agreements have now been made on working conditions for delivery workers employed by new firms such as Sandd and Selekt Mail.
However, Heemkserk believes it is still too early to open the entire postal market to competition from January 1, as earlier planned, NOS said.
