34.Section 15 allows the Postal Services Commission to make references to the Competition Commission requiring the latter to investigate and report on whether:-
matters specified in the reference and which relate to the provision of postal services whose provision is authorised or required by a licence operate against the public interest or may be expected to do so; and
if so, whether the effects adverse to the public interest which the matters have or may be expected to have could be remedied or prevented by modifying conditions of the licence.
35.The Postal Services Commission may vary the terms of a reference. They may also specify what adverse effects they believe matters specified in the reference may be expected to have and any modifications of the licence by which it considers that those effects could be remedied or prevented. The Postal Services Commission shall give the Competition Commission any related information or assistance that it considers appropriate or which has been requested by the Commission.
