    That is the whole point of the governments plan, it will have GPS tracking.

    And why wouldn't they? Its just A65 B2CD as a format, not Egyptian Hieroglyphics.

    The Sat Nav companies license Postcode data in every other country that has them, why would it be any different here?

    They do not license codes that are not available!

    How's the 10 year postcode disaster amnesia coming along?

    From Spring 2015 they will be. Are you just going to keep posting the word "ongoing" in various colours until then? Talking of amnesia you were the one who mocked my speculation and called me Columbo for saying unique postcodes might be coming, so show a little more humility.

    Just to be a absolutely factual:

    1. Sat nav companies never license postcode data;- mapping companies do!

    2. Mapping companies only license postcode data where it actually exists and it is used!

    3. To date, sat navs only provide a user interface for a very small number of national postcodes globally!
