it will contain a lot of postcode information from the original OpenStreetMap database, in adapted/translated form. Whether the amount is sufficient to be considered substantial will have to be evaluated based on the actual db that is created/the actual numbers.
To create an accurate postcode polygon from point features you will need a lot of them, so probably already a handful of them would be considered substantial.
