To ask the Minister of State, Department for Business, Innovation and Skills pursuant to the answer of 21 July 2009, Official Report, column 1527W, on Royal Mail: industrial disputes, how many working days the Royal Mail lost as a result of industrial action on (a) 22 to 23 October 2009 and (b) 29 to 31 October 2009.
Patrick McFadden (Minister of State, Department for Business, Innovation and Skills; Wolverhampton South East, Labour)
Estimating the number of days lost due to the recent industrial action is an operational matter for Royal Mail. I have therefore asked the chief executive of Royal Mail, Adam Crozier, to provide a direct reply to the hon. Member.
A copy of the response will be placed in the Libraries of the House.
