Thornton High Street Bank Closure
EDM number 1322 in 2005-06, proposed by Ben Wallace on 09/01/2006.
That this House notes with concern the announcement by HSBC that it plans to close its high street branch in Thornton in Lancashire; further notes that this will result in the loss of the town's last remaining high street bank; regrets the impact this decision will have on local businesses and older people in the town who rely upon this branch for their banking services; and calls on the Government and HSBC to accept the essential and continuing need for high street banking services to be provided in Thornton.
This motion has been signed by a total of 16 MPs.
