21.06.2012 - A new memorandum of understanding has laid the foundation for closer collaboration between the UPU and the Conference of Commonwealth Postal Administrations (CCPA).
The two organizations met in Berne, Switzerland, on June 21 to sign the agreement.
The CCPA is a group of 66 UPU designated operators from the
Commonwealth and their dependent territories. The association meets
every two years and before the UPU’s congress to discuss mail exchanges
and share best practices within the Commonwealth region. Guernsey Post
currently presides the organization.
The agreement will pave the way for the CCPA to partner more closely
with the UPU on the Union's development projects, says Ken McKeown,
director of markets development.
“This is the start,” McKeown says. “We’ll be looking to identify more specific areas of potential cooperation for the future.”
Representing the CCPA was Dudley Jehan, Guernsey Post chair. This
designated operator currently presides the organization. "This marks a
landmark moment in the CCPA's development," says Jehan. "This agreement
provides formal recognition of the association by the premier
international postal body, which opens the way for closer working
opportunities between our two respective organizations."
