    <p>Hi</p>
    <p>I've read the link below, responding as requested by both
      individuals and OSMUK can only help our mapping efforts.</p>
    <p>May I request OSMUK to consider responding to the Ofcom
      consultation<br>

        <div>I know that address data, and the various licensing and
          business models around it, are a long-standing bugbear for
          parts of the OSM community. One of those licensing and
          business models is Royal Mail because of their role on PAF.</div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>Ofcom, who regulate Royal Mail's role on PAF, are currently
          consulting on their plan of work for 2021/22. This provides an
          opportunity for them to look at this part of the address
          puzzle, but they need to know that this is important to
          people.</div>

        <div>The Centre for Public Data, which is run by Anna
          Powell-Smith aka @darkgreener on twitter, has just published a
          short briefing on the consultation, how they plan to respond,
          and tips to make it easier for others to respond if you want
          to. It's here:</div>
