Explanatory Note regarding subordinate legislation tabled at this meeting.
R&O 18/2004
This Order increases the rates of postage for parcels for delivery in Jersey or to another place in the British Islands. The rates were last increased in 1992. The rates of postage for delivery of parcels in Jersey are increased by 20%-36%. The rates of postage for delivery of parcels to another place in the British Islands are increased by 66%-149%, according to the weight of the parcel, and reflect an increase in charges made by the British Post Office for delivery.
The Order was made on 12th March 2004, and comes into force on 6th April 2004.
R&O 19/2004
This Order amends the Post Office (Foreign Parcel Post Provisions) (Jersey) Order 1979, so as to specify and amend the rates of postage for air and surface parcels for delivery outside the British Islands. The rates were last increased in 1995. The amendments result in reductions of up to 47% in charges for delivery to certain destinations and increases of between 14.9% and 298% for delivery to other destinations, according to the weight of the parcel. The revised charges are based on actual delivery costs.
The Order was made on 12th March 2004, and comes into force on 6th April 2004.
