APPSI has written to the Head of Commercial Licensing at Royal Mail in response to the recent consultation on new licenses for the Postcode Address File (PAF). In response to this consultation, several organisations have highlighted possible consequences not only for the use of addresses, but also postcodes. Our letter sets out some of these concerns which we consider as major barriers to the re-use of PAF.
We are now awaiting reassurance that Royal Mail’s new licensing model will not interfere with long-established use of a dataset which has become part of the national data infrastructure.
