The opening of the European postal market to competition is gaining
ground as Member States transpose the 1997 postal directive into
their national legislation and private postal companies expand
their market shares. Moreover, changing regulatory trends (for
example, the ever-lower weight and price limits delimitating the
scope of the reserved area) encourage further growth in the
continuing liberalization of this important network industry. In
this informative symposium, 19 practitioners and academics expert
in postal sector dynamics present detailed research findings,
analysis, and recommendations. The book is based on a conference
held in Brussels in February 2001, under the auspices of the
Universities of Liege and Ghent and the Free University of
Brussels. It provides an in-depth assessment of the challenges
presented not only by the prospect of liberalization but also by
the transition (of particular significance during the next few
years) from the traditional monopoly system. Among the critical
matters discussed are the following: terminal dues for
international mail; remail provisions; the UPU and WTO constraints
on the European postal market; EU Commission decisions and ECJ case
law interpreting the postal directive; the effects of EC Treaty
Articles 81 and 82 and the Merger Control Regulation; abuse of
market power, especially by incumbent public postal operators; the
"essential facilities" doctrine; and funding of universal service
obligations. In addition, there are specific country reports from
five EU Member States (France, Germany, Italy, Portugal, and the
United Kingdom) and Norway, bearing witness to the diversity of
means adopted to implement the postal directive. Business persons
and their counsel, regulatory officials, practitioners, and
academics interested in the creation of an EU-wide postal market-as
well as in the ongoing reliability and improvement of postal
service - should find this text valuable.
