Stamp prices: First-class stamps to cost 60p
A first-class stamp will rise in price from 46p to 60p from 30 April after the regulator lifted some price controls on Royal Mail.
A second-class stamp will go up from 36p to 50p - some 5p below the top price allowed by Ofcom.
The regulator has allowed Royal Mail to set the price of first-class and business mail.
The BBC's Chief Economics Correspondent Hugh Pym reports.
