(12) These data update the figures that the Commission had previously included in the Statement of Objections. The figures have been revised to remove EUR [...]* spent by business on stamps to send outbound cross-border mail. It had not been the Commission's understanding that this expenditure had been included in the market shares. In addition, the data previously supplied to the Commission for the United Kingdom had been based on the following constant GBP/EUR exchange rates: TPO (1.722) and TPG (1.65). All data presented in Table 1a has now been based on the official ECB average exchange rates for 1998, 1999 and 2000 respectively. Nevertheless, the difference in market structure between the resulting market shares is not great, due to certain additional adjustments that the Parties also made to the figures previously provided. (13) TPG, Deutsche Post, Swiss Post, La Poste, and Belgian Mailhouse, a joint venture between Post Danmark and Posten Sverige AB. (14) A survey that has been carried out by independent consultants for TPO based on 20 face-to-face interviews with consolidators/third party mailers. (15) Paragraph 51 of the Commission Notice on remedies acceptable under Council Regulation (EEC) No 4064/89 and under Commission Regulation (EC) No 447/98 (OJ C 68, 2.3.2001, p. 3).
