Closure Of Post Offices In Worsley

EDM number 1953 in 2003-04, proposed by Terry Lewis on 17/11/2004.

That this House deplores the decision of Post Office Ltd. to close the Greenheys, Manchester Road East, Bolton Road, Linnyshaw, Mosley Common and Topping's Bridge sub-post offices in Worsley; believes the public consultation to have been a travesty; further believes that the consultees were presented by Post Office Ltd. with a fait accompli, given that the closure programme was confirmed in its entirety within days of the end of the consultation period; further deplores that Mr Eddy Herbert, of Post Office Ltd., has yet to reply to post-consultation correspondence from the honourable Member for Worsley; and concludes that the Department for Trade and Industry should inquire into the way in which the Post Office Reinvention Programme has been conducted.

This motion has been signed by a total of 1 MPs.
