Alla Petrova, BC, Riga, 21.10.2009.Print version
The board of the postal company Latvijas Pasts (Latvian Post) was recalled at an emergency shareholders meeting of the company today.

The Transport Ministry's State Secretary Nils Freivalds made the decision because management at Latvijas Pasts have been unable to reach agreement on the company's further operations and were inconsistent in their decisions, writes LETA.

 

Before the shareholders meeting was announced, Latvijas Pasts board member Dita Danosa handed in her resignation to the Transport Ministry.

 

Taking into consideration that the company's board has not been able to offer any specific solutions for improving the financial situation at Latvijas Pasts, the final decision on the new business model for the company has been postponed. An interim report on the operations of Latvijas Pasts will be drawn up by the next Cabinet of Ministers meeting at the beginning of next week.

 

The Transport Ministry, which is the Latvijas Pasts shareholder, also appointed a new board for the company, that includes the Transport Ministry's officials. Aivars Veiss, head of the Transport Ministry's Internal Audit and Quality Management Department, is now chairman of Latvijas Pasts board, whereas other board members are Ilze Aleksandrovica, head of the Transport Ministry's Investment Department, and Riga International Airport board member Toms Naburgs.
