Licensing - LDS Cambridge Limited

On 2 April 2008, Postcomm granted a postal operator's licence to LDS Cambridge Limited.

Under the new licensing framework that took effect from 1 January 2006 and was amended in January 2008, the licence:

  • allows LDS Cambridge Limited to provide all types of postal service;
  • be issued for a rolling ten year period; and
  • requires the company to comply with codes of practice on mail integrity (safety and security of the mail) and common operational procedures (designed to ensure the multi-operator market works well in practice).
