[email protected] Date 2 7 .06.2022 Signature Introduction Each year, member countries provide the UPU International Bureau with postal statistics data. This data, which relates to the activities of designated operators, is published annually in the Postal Statistics yearbook, and is accessible through the UPU website at www.upu.int/en/Universal-Postal-Union/Activities/Research-Publications/Postal-Statistics . It forms the basis of global and regional analyses carried out by the International Bureau in the postal develop ment field. From 2015, the UPU Council of Administration decided to collect annually basic data on the entire letter, parcel and express delivery market. This questionnaire is therefore addressed to the governmental bodies responsi ble for overseeing the postal affairs of member countries. Its aim is to make available data that will provide an overview of the entire postal and express delivery sector, both at national level and worldwide. The entire letter, parcel and express delivery market in a country consists of: – the designated operator (UPU Convention, article 2), which also has the obligation to provide a universal service; – other operators that do not have this obligation. The aggregate data for all the operators that exist in the country (headings 901, 910, 920, 921, 922) will be published for each country individually in the Postal Statistics yearbook. To help maintain the quality of the postal statistics database, you are asked to: – complete all the sections of the questionnaire as carefully as possible; – supply all the data you can, in order to minimize the amount of missing data; – give the reason for any data not being supplied by using the codes ND (data not available), NG (negli gible amount) or 0 (quantity nil). Definitions To make the data consistent with that supplied by designated operators and to make the questionnaire easier to understand, the following definitions are provided. Please read the definitions carefully before answering each question. If your data is not defined in the same way, please provide us with the definitions you use. Governmental bodies responsible for overseeing postal affairs: the entities responsible for overseeing postal affairs (article 2 of the Convention). Number of staff : staff means all employees performing their functions , including part-time staff, i.e. employees working for less than the normal number of working hours each week.
