Main developments in the postal sector (2010-2013)
Väljaande metaandmed
‘Postal services’ — delivery services for documents and parcels provided by private companies or public undertakings — continue to have a central role in the development of an effective and dynamic Single Market. However, the role of postal services is changing fundamentally. Demand for distribution of letters, newspapers, magazines, advertisements, and other documents is declining due to the rise of advanced electronic communications. At the same time, demand for parcel delivery services is increasing due to the development of e-commerce, just-in-time manufacturing, and other business trends driven by the new electronic technologies. The present study is the fifth in a series of ‘Main Developments’ studies. These studies have been motivated, in part, by the Commission’s obligation under the Postal Directive to prepare periodic reports for the European Parliament and Council on the application of the Postal Directive. The ‘application reports’ summarise developments in the sector pertaining to implementation of the regulatory framework, quality of postal service, economic and social issues, employment, and technological changes. In addition, this study seeks to place recent developments in the larger context of European postal reform and the changing nature of the sector. Taking into account lessons learned from the past and foreseeable developments, we suggest options for policy makers to consider for further benefit of the postal sector in the future, including modernisation of the EU postal policy and its regulatory framework for postal services. This study covers the 28 Member States of the European Union; the 3 non-EU Member States of the European Economic Area (Lichtenstein, Iceland, Norway); and Switzerland.
