McCreevy is working on the European Commission's Third Postal Directive, due to be published towards the end of 2006.
He recently met with members of the Postal Users Group, an alliance of Europe's major users of postal services, which supports full market liberalisation and the removal of national barriers for postal users.
PUG chairman, David Robottom, said: "Previously, postal users have not met with the commissioner before the EU's proposals had been completed. We are very pleased to have been consulted from the first stage onwards, and we found the commissioner very receptive to the users' views."
The meeting was attended representatives of PUG member organisations including Fedma (the Federation of European Direct and Interactive Marketing), the European Federation of Magazine Publishers, the European Newspaper Publishers Association and the International Chamber of Commerce.
