Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, whether she has made an assessment of the potential impact of low-level letterboxes on postal workers.

Guidance on letterplate specifications for developers are referenced in Approved Document Q (ADQ), but the Government has recently published a Frequently Asked Question alongside ADQ on gov.uk here, providing developers with further guidance on letterbox and letterplate positioning. When reviewing the Approved Documents, the Building Safety Regulator engages with the Building Advisory Committee, an independent board of industry representatives, including developers.
