The Government's welcoming NZ Post's return to profit - with a dividend returned to the Crown. 

The mail service has reported a net $17-million net profit in the past financial year, up from a $2-million-dollar loss last year.

CEO David Walsh says it's important for the company to get all the basics right, and they're pleased to report this turnaround.
